Fees and Rebates
This page provides an overview of session fees and the funding options that may be available for psychological services.
​
If you are unsure which option applies to your situation, please contact the practice for guidance.
Session fees
The standard fee for therapy sessions is $220 per 50-60 minute session. Payment is required on the day of the appointment unless otherwise arranged.
A small number of reduced-fee appointments are offered at any one time for clients experiencing genuine financial hardship. Availability is limited and offered at the psychologist’s discretion. Bulk billing is not available.
Medicare rebates
Medicare rebates may be available for eligible clients with a valid referral under the Better Access initiative.
For sessions with a registered psychologist, the current Medicare rebate is $98.95 for a 50-minute session. Medicare currently allows up to 10 rebated psychology sessions per calendar year, subject to eligibility and GP review requirements.
Private health insurance
Some private health funds provide rebates for psychology services. Please contact your health fund directly to confirm coverage, eligibility, rebate amounts and annual limits.
Private health rebates cannot be claimed for sessions where a Medicare rebate is also used.
NDIS participants
Psychological services may be funded through the NDIS for participants whose plan includes capacity-building supports. Sessions are provided in line with the participant’s NDIS goals; plan management arrangements; and NDIA pricing guidelines where applicable.
Please note that NDIS funding cannot be used for mental-health-only treatment and must relate to disability-related support needs.
Private clients
Clients may choose to attend sessions privately without a referral. Private sessions are not eligible for Medicare rebates, but this option allows greater flexibility in session frequency and focus.
