New client?
(For Autism and Cognitive assessment appointments please scroll down to next section)
Are we the right practice for you?
Our current team consists of Psychologists, Mental Heath Clinicians and Dietitians.
Psychology is a complex and diverse area with many sub-areas. Although we wish we could cater for all presentations, unfortunately the services we offer depends on the training and professional experience of our current team members.
Our current mental health team primarily support children, teens and adults with:
- anxiety
- depression
- stress
- trauma
- emotion dysregulation (such as anger)
At this point in time we cannot accept referrals for eating disorders, complex issues arising from family separation and/or violence, court and forensic issues.
Fees
Our fees are between $145 and $267 per appointment depending on the clinician, which is lower than the private practice fee recommended by the Australian Psychology Society.
Medicare rebates are available for many services if you have a Mental Health Treatment Plan.
Please note:
- Medicare will give you a rebate for the session but this does not cover the entire cost of the session.
- Out-of-pocket costs are between $130-$170 per appointment.
PLEASE NOTE: We are not currently providing in-clinic sessions. We are currently 100% Telehealth until further notice.
Consent for services
Our experience tells us that we have better outcomes for child clients when we have consent from both parents. For this reason, although either parent can initiate booking a session for their child, we will seek the consent of the second parent before commencing with the child for therapeutic or assessment services. If we do not have consent form the second parent we may not be able to proceed with the service.
