AI therapy uses chatbots and digital tools to provide guidance, psychoeducation, and emotional support. It is not a replacement for professional therapy but can complement mental health care.

Can AI replace a therapist?

No. AI cannot detect non-verbal cues, provide clinical judgment, or manage complex emotional needs. Professional therapy with a trained clinician is essential for safe and effective mental health care.

Do you offer telehealth sessions?

Yes. Syné Collective provides secure telehealth sessions for individuals and couples throughout Australia.

What languages do your therapists speak?

All our therapists speak English. Maria’s first language is Spanish, and Tania understands Italian.

What are your therapy fees?

Individual therapy is $150, extended 90-minute session $200, couples therapy $220, extended couples session $300. Fees are competitive with the Medicare gap rebate.

Where is Syné Collective located?

We are located at Suite 21, Level 1, Tower 1/201 Sussex Street, Sydney, NSW 2000, in the heart of Sydney CBD.

Do you offer after-hours or Saturday sessions?

Yes. After-hours and Saturday sessions are available upon request.

Are your therapists accredited?

Yes. All our therapists are registered with PACFA and/or ACA, ensuring high professional standards and clinical expertise.

Funded Services

Flexible & Transparent Pricing

Accessing psychology, counselling, or psychotherapy in Sydney typically ranges from $200–$350 per session, with fees set by the individual practitioner or practice.

Government programs such as the Medicare Mental Health Care Plan (MHTP) allow Clients to claim rebates for eligible sessions. These rebates are set by the federal government and help reduce out-of-pocket costs, but they do not determine a Practitioner’s session fee.

At Syné Collective, we believe in providing access to high-quality, affordable care — without waitlists and without referrals — so you can access support when you need it most.

Please note: we do not offer Medicare-rebatable sessions.

However, our fee structure has been intentionally designed with the Medicare rebate in mind. This means that even without a Mental Health Care Plan or GP referral, our fees are comparable to the out-of-pocket cost many clients pay when accessing therapy through Medicare.

Free 15-minute Discovery Session
$150.00 Individual Therapy
$220.00 Couples & Group Therapy

Payment can be made online at the time of booking, or confirmed and paid later. Full payment is due on the day of your session. After-Hours & Extended Sessions are available upon request via email.

Bridging the Mental Health Care Gap

For too long, there has been a significant gap in mental health care in Sydney — long wait times, high fees, and impersonal, bulk-billed services often make accessing quality care difficult and disheartening. That’s why our boutique private practice is committed to bridging this gap by offering timely, accessible, and high-quality support that feels warm, discreet, and genuinely human. At Syné, therapy is never one-size-fits-all.

Many people automatically search for 'Psychologists Near Me' or book with a Clinical Psychiatrist simply because they aren’t familiar with Psychotherapy, and the different types of Mental Health Care in Sydney. While our network of Clinical Providers are essential for diagnosing and treating complex mental health conditions, those seeking structured Talk Therapy don’t always need Medical intervention.

Experienced & Accredited Psychotherapists — like the team at Syné Collective — offer evidence-based, constructive therapy, helping individuals get the support they need, whilst allowing medical practitioners to focus on cases requiring diagnosis or medication.
