Full transcript
Thanks for coming in today, Ms. Fernández. Your GP mentioned you've been feeling anxious for several weeks—could you tell me a bit more about what's been happening?
Sí, doctora... llevo casi un mes sin poder dormir bien, el corazón se me acelera y no dejo de pensar en que voy a perder mi trabajo.
I need to ask a routine question: have you had any thoughts of harming yourself or ending your life recently?
No, nada de eso. Solo me siento muy abrumada y a veces no puedo respirar bien cuando pienso en el futuro.
Your GP can set up a Mental Health Treatment Plan, which allows up to ten subsidised sessions with a psychologist this year.
¿Y cuánto tiempo tendría que esperar para ver a un psicólogo, y tendría que pagar algo?
Headspace Wollongong usually has an opening within two weeks, and if you're eligible, the sessions are bulk-billed—no out-of-pocket cost.
Qué alivio escuchar eso. ¿Y si me siento mal un fin de semana, antes de la cita, hay algún número al que pueda llamar?
Yes—Lifeline is available 24 hours a day on 13 11 14. If you ever feel unsafe before your appointment, please call them straight away.
Gracias... me preocupa un poco que mi familia se entere, porque en mi cultura no se habla mucho de estos temas.
Everything you share stays confidential and won't be disclosed without your consent, unless there's a serious safety risk. We'll also arrange an interpreter for future sessions.
Muchas gracias, eso me tranquiliza mucho. Entonces nos vemos la próxima semana para la primera cita con el psicólogo.
Terms in this dialogue that cost marks
CCL is marked on information transferred. These Australian terms have no direct word in most test languages — get one wrong and the segment's information is gone.
- lifelineSe mantiene como 'Lifeline', puede añadirse una breve explicación como 'la línea de ayuda en crisis'.
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The free daily dialogue on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went.
