There’s no universal fit in therapy. If face-to-face sessions don’t feel right for you, then that’s ok. Therapy looks different for everyone, and the reasons you may choose online therapy can be far-reaching.
Online therapy is secure and convenient, with no waiting lists and Medicare rebates process for you. Whether you're living in a remote community, cannot travel to your psychologists' office, or simply want a therapy solution that works around your schedule, online therapy could be a great option for you.
Read 6 reasons why online therapy might be a good fit for you
Studies show that online therapy is just as effective as face-to-face therapy, helping hundreds of thousands of Australians access professional therapy services from their own home.
No two people are identical, and that’s why therapy should be personalised and adaptive. Online therapy allows you to do just this – personalised therapy sessions using evidence-based techniques.
Confidential and discrete sessions are a vital part of therapy. All My Mirror psychologists are fully qualified and registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (or AHPRA for short). This means they are both ethically and legally bound to keep their sessions confidential, and gives clients peace of mind to talk openly.
All our online therapy sessions are end-to-end encrypted, so only you and your psychologist have access to the call. No third parties, including My Mirror itself, can access data from the call.
Online therapy works best when our clients know they’re in a safe space. That’s why we take our privacy and security policies seriously, creating the best possible environment for you and your online therapy sessions.
You’ll know you’ve found a good psychologist match when you’re able to speak freely and open up in your therapy sessions. They should make you feel heard, have experience working in your area of concern, and most importantly help you to see improvements as your sessions progress over time.
There are many different types of therapy, and your psychologist may assess which could be the right type for you based on your individual needs and goals. Some of the most common forms of therapy can include:
Just like face-to-face psychologists, our Registered Psychologists and Clinical Psychologists are registered with the Psychology Board of Australia (PsyBA), listed with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA), and individually approved by My Mirror.
We ensure all of our Clinical Psychologists and General Psychologists have current registration to practice with the Psychology Board of Australia (PsyBA) and are listed with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA). My Mirrors ensure all of our psychologists have the required credentials and qualifications, and have relevant experience in the treatment of adult mental health issues. They also undergo an interview process conducted by a team of us at My Mirror, to ensure they uphold the highest of standards in ethical care and work in line with evidence-based practices to guide your therapy.

My Mirror will not be able to offer the right solution for you if:
I am so grateful for my psychologist from My Mirror, and having my psychologist available via telehealth has been so much more beneficial for my mental health. Being able to be seen, heard and listened to rather than waiting so long on a waitlist has been a godsend.
Having been initially sceptical, my overall experience with My Mirror has been fantastic. My Mirror matched and connected me with a psychologist who simply “got” me from the very beginning. I cannot recommend this service enough.
I'm one of those people who doesn't enjoy going out of my home or talking to a doctor, let alone a psychologist. Without My Mirror and the services they provide I would most likely neglect seeking help, so it's a big tick from me for these guys.
One of the best online platforms I have ever used. The simplicity of the bulk billing system, rebates and the selection of well educated clinical psychologists is what we need. Couldn't of found a better website. 🙌
