Session Fees

Mental Health Care Plans

For those who have a Mental Health Care Plan from their GP, Medicare rebates are available for up to 10 therapy sessions per calendar year (from January to December), and you can access an additional 10 sessions each year thereafter.

My fee for each session is $220.00, and the Medicare rebate is $137.05, which means your out-of-pocket expense per session will be $82.95.

To be eligible for the Medicare rebate, it’s essential to obtain a Mental Health Care Plan from your GP before your initial session.

If you’ve exhausted your Medicare-rebated sessions for the year and the cost of privately paying $220.00 per session is too difficult, please don’t hesitate to discuss lower rates that may be available.

Eating Disorder Treatment and Management Plans

For those who have an Eating Disorders Treatment Plan from their GP, Medicare rebates are available for up to 40 therapy sessions every calendar year (from January to December) for those with a specified eating disorder who meet elegibility criteria.

My fee for each session is $220.00, and the Medicare rebate is $137.05, which means your out-of-pocket expense per session will be $82.95.

To be eligible for the Medicare rebate, it’s essential to obtain an Eating Disorders Treatment Plan from your GP before your initial session.

*You cannot use a Mental Health Care Plan (and access 50 sessions) if you have already used an Eating Disorders Treatment Plan in the same year. However, if you begin with a Mental Health Care Plan, you can switch to an Eating Disorders Treatment Plan to access more sessions, up to a total of 40 sessions in one year.

Chronic Disease Management Plans

For those who have an Chronic Disease Managment Plan from their GP, Medicare rebates are available for up to 5 therapy sessions every calendar year (from January to December) for those with a chronic disease who meet elegibility criteria.

My fee for each session is $220.00, and the Medicare rebate is $58.30, which means your out-of-pocket expense per session will be $161.70.

To be eligible for the Medicare rebate, it’s essential to obtain a Chronic Disease Managment Plan from your GP before your session.

*If you are elegible, a Chronic Disease Managment Plan can be used after you have completed 10 Mental Health Care Plan sessions.

Private health insurance

Private health insurance rebates may be an option. Generally, a top-level health insurance cover is required. I recommend verifying with your health fund to confirm your eligibility.

*You can use private health insurance rebates, either before or after, Medicare rebated sessions, but not at the same time.

Private fee

My private fee is $220.00 per session.

If the cost of privately paying $220.00 per session is too difficult, please don’t hesitate to discuss lower rates that may be available.

NDIS

My session fee is $220.00 for self managed NDIS participants or $214.41 for plan managed participants.

Unfortunately I am unable to see NDIA managed participants.
