Referrals & Rebates
Referrals
You do not require a referral to attend an appointment with us. Many people decide to see a psychologist without consulting a GP or other health professional. However, if you wish to claim a rebate through Medicare, you will require a referral from your GP or Psychiatrist (please see the section on rebates for further details).
Fees
The Australian Psychological Society’s (APS) recommended fee for a standard 50-minute session is $315. Our standard session fees are significantly less than this.
​
Our standard fee is $240. Is you have a Mental Health Care Plan from your GP, you can receive a Medicare rebate of $141.85, reducing the out-of-pocket cost to $98.15.
​
Rebates
If you have a valid Mental Health Care Plan, you may be eligible for a rebate from Medicare for up to $141.85 per session (from 1 July 2024), for up to 10 sessions per calendar year.
Private Health
You may be able to claim some of the fees back through your Private Health Fund.
​
At the conclusion of each session, you may request an invoice that provides the details required for you to organise rebates with your insurance provider.
​
Please note: you are not able to claim from Medicare and your private health fund for the same consultation.
