Subsidy information - Work and Income

We believe that counselling and psychotherapy should be available to everyone who has a need. If finances are tight and you are working with one of us, you may be entitled to the disability allowance through Work and Income  - you don't need to already be receiving a benefit to qualify for this . Currently clients are only eligible to see Selina Clare or Michael Apathy using the Work and Income disability allowance for counselling.

About Work and Income's Disability Allowance
The Disability Allowance is a weekly payment for people of all ages who have a disability or ongoing health condition and need help with the additional costs directly associated with that condition. It’s available to people who qualify for a Community Services Card, including those on a benefit or people who are working. There is an income test. An application can also be made on behalf of a child if they’re aged 18 years or under and financially dependent on the person who’s making the application.

To find out more about eligibility and how to apply click here or call Work and Income on 0800 559 009. 

Please note that our Interns aren't able to sign off on this paperwork, so you will need to see one of the fully trained practitioners instead if you're using a WINZ subsidy.
