Medicare Rebate
If referred by your GP along with a Mental Health Care Plan, you will be eligible for a Medicare rebate. Medicare currently provides a rebate for up to 10 sessions per calendar year, with regular reviews required from the referring practitioner. Rebates can be processed directly for you following your session. Paediatricians and psychiatrists can also refer to psychologists for Medicare-eligible services.
Psychology services may be subsidised by your private health insurer (please check with your insurance provider). You do not need a referral from a medical practitioner to qualify for private health insurance rebates. Please be aware you cannot use your private health insurance if you are already accessing Medicare rebates for your session.

Cancellation Policy
When an appointment is booked, I reserve the time specifically for you. Please provide at least 48 hours notice to reschedule or cancel your appointment, otherwise you will be charged 50% of the session fee. If the 48- hour notice period occurs over a weekend or public holiday, please still provide adequate notice via a voicemail or email to avoid late cancellation fees. The full fee will apply for non-attendance on the day of the appointment. Please note that late cancellation and non-attendance fees are not eligible for any Medicare or private health fund rebates.
