Fees & Rebates
Individual/Family
Fees are $190 (inc GST) for a standard 50 minute session.
With a GP referral, you may be entitled to a Medicare rebate. Please ask for further information when booking your appointment.
Fee Payment
Fees are payable at the end of the session by EFTPOS, and in some cases Direct Deposit. You may be able to access a rebate for services if you are a member of a Private Health Care Fund or have been issued with a current Mental Health Care Plan from your treating General Practitioner (GP) or Psychiatrist. Medicare Rebates can be claimed directly at time of payment. This works by paying the full fee and your rebate is transferred back to your account.
Medicare Rebate
The MHCP will enable you to receive a significant rebate off your fee. To be eligible for a Medicare rebate, you will need to be issued with a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP), by your treating practitioner. Your GP will assess your eligibility prior to your initial consultation with a treating psychologist. If eligible, your GP will prepare a MHCP referral (referral letter and Mental Health Care Plan). An MHCP permits individuals to access rebates for a maximum of ten sessions of both individual and group therapy sessions, per calendar year.
Please Note: It is not necessary to obtain a referral from your treating practitioner to access psychological services.
Private Health Rebate
Each Private Health Care Fund differs in terms of accessible rebates for psychological treatment. Please contact your provider to discuss what entitlements, if any, are available to you.
