Fees
The fee is $250 for a 50-minute session. You can receive up to 10 Medicare rebates in the calendar year if you are eligible for a mental health care plan which can be obtained from your GP. You can receive you to 40 Medicare rebates if you have an eating disorder plan. The current Medicare rebate amount is $93.35 so the gap fee is $156.65 per session. Reduced rates are available on a discretionary basis.
Private health insurance can be used for psychology sessions depending on your level of cover – please check with your provider.
At this current time, I do not offer sessions under NDIS, Victims of Crime and I do not offer a medico-legal report service.
