Frequently Asked Questions

You don’t need a GP referral to see a psychologist. However if you wish to access Medicare rebates you will need to speak to your GP and organize a referral + mental healthcare plan prior to session one. It is also helpful to have a medical professional, such as your GP, on your care team in order to provide you with support.

You can access up to 10 Medicare rebatable sessions in the calendar year.

If your medical insurance covers you for Psychology sessions, I will provide a receipt and you can claim the rebate through your health insurer. Please note you cannot use both Medicare and Private Health Insurance to fund a session. You have to choose one and let the practitioner know at the start of your session.

Please contact me to discuss the fees.

A standard session is for 50 minutes. If longer sessions are required, this will be discussed with you.

Unfortunately I am not able to offer any bulk billed appointments.

I do work with third party insurance such as Work-Cover and TAC. 

Please Contact me to discuss further.

A reminder text and email is sent to your registered contact details 72 hours prior to your appointment. Life circumstances are unpredictable and understandable. You can cancel or reschedule the appointment by emailing or calling the clinic. Please note I have a 24 business hour cancellation policy. The cost for a cancellation with less than 24 business notice is $120 and the no show fees are the full session fee of $220.

Please note there are no Medicare rebates available for late cancellation or no show fees.

The cancellation policy is in place as cancelling at the last-minute means that you are delaying

your therapy, that time could have been used by another client, it is the time that the practitioner has lost preparing for your session and the practitioner still bears business expenses.
