Medicare


At this stage, Medicare does not cover the services of Professional Counsellors.


If you have a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) and would like to utilise rebates through Medicare, then you will need to see your GP for a referral to a psychologist or psychiatrist.


Payment


In-Person Sessions: payments are accepted via PayID, eftpos, credit cards, and cash at the appointment.


Online & Phone Sessions: I will email you an invoice before the session and payments will be accepted via online banking and credit cards prior to the appointment.



Cancellation and Rescheduling Policy


I understand that there are times when life throws the unexpected at us, and that despite our best intentions it means were unable to make an appointment.  Please make sure that if you are unable to attend your appointment that you cancel and reschedule at least 24 hours beforehand, otherwise you will be charged the full fee for the session.  This also means that if there is someone on the waitlist for an appointment, they will be able to take up the opportunity of availability.

Are you considering professional counselling but would like to have a chat first?  I'd love to connect with you before you commit to your Intake Session.

I offer a free 20-minute consultation via an online or phone appointment.  This is a great opportunity for us to discuss what has led you to seek counselling and how you envision your life after therapy.

I look forward to meeting you.
