3 March 2026

The Commonwealth Department of Health, Disability and Ageing is currently consulting on potential regulatory models to support implementation of the National Standards for Counsellors and Psychotherapists.

Given the important role of counsellors and psychotherapists in upholding professional standards, quality and consumer safety, your feedback will help ensure the Department's work reflects the practical realities and priorities of those working in the field.

The survey is being administered by Nous Group on behalf of the Department. Participation is voluntary, responses are anonymous, and findings will be reported in aggregate only. The survey should take approximately 10–12 minutes to complete. Please note that most questions are optional and you are welcome to provide input on the areas most relevant to you.

The survey closes on 20 March 2026.

We encourage you to have your say and contribute to shaping the future of the profession.
