FAQs

Do I need a referral to see you?

No referral is required to book an appointment privately. However, if you’d like to access Medicare rebates, you’ll need a Mental Health Care Plan from your GP.

Can I claim sessions through Medicare?

Yes. If you have a current Mental Health Care Plan, you’re eligible for a rebate of $98.95 per session for up to 10 sessions per calendar year. After paying the full session fee, your rebate can be processed electronically.

Do you offer telehealth or in-person sessions?

I currently offer telehealth sessions. Telehealth is a great option if you prefer the comfort of home or live regionally. All you need is a private space, your phone or computer, and a stable internet connection.

What happens in the first session?

The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other. We’ll talk about what’s been going on for you, what you’d like support with, and what you’re hoping to get out of therapy. There’s no pressure - you set the pace, and we go from there.

How many sessions will I need?

Everyone’s journey is different. Some people come for a short period to work through a specific issue, while others benefit from longer-term support.

What’s your cancellation policy?

Please provide at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to reschedule or cancel. Late cancellations or missed appointments may incur a fee, as this time has been set aside for you.
