Sometimes the thought of seeing a therapist can feel overwhelming, and that is understandable. Please contact our admin team for an obligation-free chat about the kind of support you are looking for and the services we offer.
Self-referral: You are welcome to contact us. You do not need a referral to book, but without a referral you may not be able to claim a Medicare rebate.
Medicare: A Medicare rebate needs a Mental Health Care Plan and GP referral, or a psychiatrist referral. Medicare currently rebates $149.45 per session for a clinical psychologist and $101.50 per session for a general psychologist. Please contact your GP if you want to discuss a Mental Health Care Plan. The number of rebated sessions depends on your plan and the current Medicare rules. Please ask your GP or our admin team what applies to you.
Private health insurance: You may be able to claim a rebate through your extras cover. Please check with your insurer what your policy includes.
