All of the therapists in the practice are registered providers with Medicare and thus clients may be able to claim a rebate of up to $131.65 for up to 10 sessions if they are referred by a GP, psychiatrist or pediatrician for mental health reasons.
For more information on the Medicare rebate click here. While every effort is made to keep fees below the recommended rate of the Australian Psychological Society there remains a gap between fees charged and the Medicare rebate. Each practitioner sets their own fees.
HEALTH FUND REBATES
Many health funds offer rebates for the cost of psychotherapy/counselling with a clinical psychologist. Please check with your healthfund to see whether you are eligible for a rebate. Usually health funds do not require a doctor's referral for psychology consults.
