Anglicare Counselling’s approach is primarily focusing on relationships between people in their couple and family contexts. Our counsellors generally offer an extensive but integrated approach and use specific skills depending on the client’s presenting need.
Most services require clients to contribute towards the cost. Contributions are generally based on income. However, no one is denied access to our services because of their inability to pay. Some services are provided free of charge, depending on funding. We receive funding for some services from the Australian Government Department of Social Services, the Attorney General’s Department and NSW Department of Communities and Justice.
All Anglicare counsellors are experienced, tertiary trained, belong to professional organisations and are bound by a code of ethics. Anglicare provides regular clinical supervision, professional development and support to maintain standards of excellence.
Information shared with the counsellor is confidential. Anglicare family counselling programs comply the Confidentiality and Admissibility provisions of the Family Law Act.
Information shared with the counsellor can only be shared with others
Counselling records can only be used as evidence in a court case if they contain information about child abuse that is not available from another source.
Other Anglicare programs do not need to comply with the Family Law Act but may have other confidentiality requirements.
