Please see our fee structure below. Patients on a Mental Health Care Plan are able to claim a rebate for up to 10 sessions per calendar year. Private health fund rebates may apply, and we encourage speaking to your healthcare provider for further information.
All fees are required to be paid upfront at the time of consultation, as per Medicare requirements. Medicare rebates will be processed and returned to you electronically. All payments are to be made using card only. Merchant facilities are available onsite or via telephone. Fees are as follows:

Our fees are below the recommended fees of the Australian Psychology Society which is currently set at $311 per 50 minute consult. We strive to keep the cost of our services down to keep psychology accessible to everyone.
Medicare
Medicare offers rebated psychological sessions to eligible individuals. To learn about Mental Health Care Plans, please follow this link. *Medicare does not provide any rebate for couples counselling currently.
Workcover
We currently have providers registered for workers compensation counselling. If making a WorkCover appointment, please ensure you have all necessary paperwork with you at your first appointment, including approval from your employer’s insurance provider to begin sessions.
Cancellation Policy
We certainly understand that issues and emergencies arise, however, we ask that you always try to notify us with as much notice as possible should you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment. We offer a text message 48 hours prior to ensure you have enough time to notify us of any issues.
In the event that you need to cancel your appointment with less than 24 hours notice, a fee will be added to your next payable invoice. This is not a punitive action, but a means to cover costs for holding your room and loss of an hour. Rooms are always booked and for you in advance. Non-attendance is not only an issue for the practice, but also prevents others from accessing this appointment time.
Any questions and concerns surrounding this information, please contact us for a confidential discussion.
