Session fee: $230

Private psychotherapy is an investment in understanding and altering long-standing life patterns. To maintain clinical independence and provide deep, unhurried care, my practice operates as a private billing service.

Medicare Rebates (Better Access Scheme)

As an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker (AMHSW), my services are recognized by Medicare Australia under the Better Access initiative.

• GP Referral: If you obtain a Mental Health Treatment Plan (MHTP) from your General Practitioner, you may be eligible to claim a Medicare rebate for up to 10 individual sessions per calendar year.

• Rebate Amount: The current Medicare rebate for In-Person and Online Psychotherapy provided by an AMHSW is $89.50 per session.

• Out-of-Pocket Cost: With a standard session fee of $230, your net out-of-pocket gap fee is $140.50 per session.

Note: You do not need a GP referral to book an appointment if you intend to pay privately or claim through select private health funds.
