About Essential Wholeness

Essential Wholeness is the private psychology and counselling practice of Eric Lyleson, a registered psychologist based in Dee Why on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. The practice offers individual psychotherapy and coaching, couples and family counselling, as well as groups, meditation and spiritual awakening programs grounded in both modern psychology and contemplative traditions. Eric has more than 30 years of experience, integrates approaches such as CBT, mindfulness, family systems and hypnotherapy, and is the author of “Essential Wholeness: Integral Psychotherapy, Spiritual Awakening, and the Enneagram.”([essentialwholeness.com.au](https://essentialwholeness.com.au/about/?utm_source=openai)) Clients can contact the practice via phone on +61 2 9971 4441, email eric@essentialwholeness.com.au, or in person at 107/30 Fisher Road, Dee Why NSW 2099.([essentialwholeness.com.au](https://essentialwholeness.com.au/?utm_source=openai))

A charge from Essential Wholeness is most commonly related to a face‑to‑face or telehealth psychology session, couples counselling, family therapy, or a coaching/consultation appointment. Fees for sessions generally start from around AU$225, with Medicare and private health rebates potentially reducing the out‑of‑pocket amount if you have an eligible referral or cover.([goodtherapy.com.au](https://www.goodtherapy.com.au/eric_lyleson?utm_source=openai)) You might also see a charge if you registered and paid for an event, course, retreat, or purchased Eric Lyleson’s “Essential Wholeness” book or related resources via a card terminal or online payment link associated with the practice. In some cases, your bank statement may show the practice name alongside the Dee Why location or a payment processor descriptor rather than “Essential Wholeness” exactly.

If you’re unsure about a charge, start by checking recent appointment confirmations, invoices, or emails from eric@essentialwholeness.com.au around the transaction date. Then compare the amount on your statement to the typical session fee or any event/course fee you agreed to when booking; keep in mind that your bank may show the total fee before Medicare or insurer rebates are paid back to you.([goodtherapy.com.au](https://www.goodtherapy.com.au/eric_lyleson?utm_source=openai)) To resolve questions or dispute a charge, you can contact the practice directly by calling +61 2 9971 4441 or emailing eric@essentialwholeness.com.au and request a copy of your invoice or a breakdown of services billed. If you still believe the transaction is incorrect after speaking with the practice, contact your bank or card issuer to lodge a formal dispute, providing any correspondence and receipts from Essential Wholeness as supporting documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What services does Essential Wholeness usually bill for?

Essential Wholeness typically bills for individual psychology sessions, couples counselling, family therapy, and coaching or psychotherapy consultations delivered in person or via telehealth. Additional charges can arise from meditation or spiritual awakening courses, Enneagram workshops, or other group programs offered through the practice.

What are the typical fees for a session at Essential Wholeness?

According to Eric Lyleson’s listing on Good Therapy Australia, fees for psychology sessions at his Dee Why practice generally start from around AU$225 per session, with the exact amount depending on the type and length of the appointment. Medicare and private health rebates may be available if you have an appropriate referral or eligible cover, which can reduce your out‑of‑pocket cost.([goodtherapy.com.au](https://www.goodtherapy.com.au/eric_lyleson?utm_source=openai))

Why does my Essential Wholeness charge not match the Medicare rebate or gap I expected?

Your bank statement will usually show the full session fee processed through the terminal at Essential Wholeness, while any Medicare or private health rebate is paid separately to your nominated account. This means the card charge may look higher than the ‘gap’ you expected, even though you later receive a rebate. Check the invoice from the practice and your Medicare/insurer statement for the same service date to see the full picture.

Can Essential Wholeness place a temporary or small authorization charge on my card?

If you paid a deposit online or stored your card when booking, the payment processor used by Essential Wholeness or an associated booking platform may place a temporary authorization on your card to confirm the payment method. This can sometimes appear as a small amount or a pending transaction that later disappears or is adjusted to the final session fee. If you have a pending Essential Wholeness charge that doesn’t finalize within a few days, contact both the practice and your bank for clarification.

Does Essential Wholeness offer ongoing or recurring billing for therapy sessions?

Essential Wholeness primarily charges on a per‑session basis, so most people will see one charge for each appointment attended. However, if you’ve scheduled regular weekly or fortnightly appointments and chosen to leave your card on file, you may see a pattern of recurring charges at similar amounts around your regular appointment times. Review your appointment confirmations or ask the practice whether your card has been authorized for automatic payments.

How do I cancel or reschedule an appointment to avoid being charged?

Essential Wholeness does not publish a detailed cancellation policy on its public site, but like many psychology practices it may require a certain amount of notice (often 24–48 hours) to avoid a late‑cancellation fee. To cancel or reschedule, call +61 2 9971 4441 or email eric@essentialwholeness.com.au as early as possible and ask them to confirm any fees or penalties in writing.([essentialwholeness.com.au](https://essentialwholeness.com.au/contact/?utm_source=openai))

How can I request a receipt, invoice, or refund for an Essential Wholeness charge?

If you need a detailed receipt for Medicare, private health claims, or personal records, contact Essential Wholeness directly and request a tax invoice for the specific date and amount shown on your bank statement. For refund requests—such as if you believe you were charged for an appointment you cancelled in time—email eric@essentialwholeness.com.au with your full name, service date, and card charge details, and ask for their decision and any applicable policy in writing. Your bank or card issuer may also ask for this documentation if you pursue a formal dispute.

Who should I contact if I don’t recognize an Essential Wholeness charge on my statement?

First, confirm with family members or anyone who shares your card or account that they did not attend a session, course, or retreat with Essential Wholeness around the transaction date. If no one recognizes the charge, contact the practice by phone on +61 2 9971 4441 or email eric@essentialwholeness.com.au to ask what service was billed under your card details. If the practice has no record of you or the transaction, report the charge to your bank or card provider immediately so they can investigate potential fraud or card compromise.
