Interior Design
Alula Blu is specifically designed with mental health in mind. The contrasting shades of blue, beige, brown and white, are all tones found in nature on earth. These hues have much shorter wavelengths than brighter colours, meaning they cause much less stimulation. This helps to reduce stress and aid in self-regulation. Alula Blu’s interior design considers the context of sensory sensitivities, and how a particular colour palette impacts thoughts, feelings, and emotions. Both beige and blue evoke feelings of comfort and calm, and can be used to create warmth in a room. These colours are often used in spaces designed for relaxation and tranquillity, such as meditation and wellness spaces.

Our Schedule

It is imperative that clients stick to the schedule, i.e., the time slots provided, so that the ebb and flow of client appointments remains running smoothly. As a reminder, the time slots include: 9am, 11am, 1pm, 3pm. If you arrive at your appointment early and the sign still says, “In session, please do not disturb,” please do not ring the bell or attempt to enter the building. Every client’s time needs to be respected.
Confidentiality
Anything that is said during a session remains confidential. All files and notes containing sensitive information are kept locked away and secure. There are a number of instances where confidentiality can be broken. This is when a file is subpoenaed by a court of law, or under exceptional circumstances as outlined in the ACA Code of Conduct.
Exceptional Circumstances
If your therapist is given reason to believe that you are in danger, a danger to yourself, or others. This includes third parties. For example; If your therapist learns that somebody else in your life is being subject to abuse of any nature, under mandatory reporting laws the therapist has a legal and ethical obligation to report such incidents to authorities.
Ask AB a question?
Alula Blu will do its best to answer any questions the general public may have. If you have a question that is not answered here, feel free to send the practice an email or text message, or give us a call on 0448 981 565.
Does Alula Blu have public liability insurance?
Yes. Alula Blu takes its responsibilities seriously and is prepared to cover the costs of any potential mishaps. For your peace of mind, and ours.
Do clients sit in the waiting room while someone else is in session?
No. During an active session, only therapist and client will be inside the building. No other person has access into the building. This is to maintain privacy and confidentiality.
Is off-street parking available?
Absolutely. Alula Blu holds the lease to the private practice, which of course extends to the entire car park.
Do you have wheelchair access?
Yes. An access ramp is stationed at the side-door of the building, leading from the practice into the car park.
Do you bulk bill?
Alula Blu is unable to accept Mental Health Care Plans under the Medicare system. What this means however, is that you are not required to see your GP and gain a Mental Health Care Plan to access and benefit from our services. You remain in control of your time with Alula Blu. Counselling fees have been carefully considered to ensure accessibility to a broader demographic of people as possible, for sustainable therapy. Furthermore, you would not be limited with the number of sessions offered to you, as would be the case under a MHCP. The session fees remain the same and there are no limitations to the amount of sessions you may have.
