Fees, Rebates and Payment
Understand what your session will cost before you book.
This page explains our consultation fees, Medicare rebates, private health options, and other funding pathways such as DVA, NDIS and Workers’ Compensation. Our aim is to be as transparent as possible, so you can plan ahead and avoid surprises.
Fees may vary slightly depending on the clinician you see and the type of service provided (for example, standard therapy sessions versus assessments). Many clients are eligible for a partial Medicare rebate with a current referral and Mental Health Treatment Plan from their GP. Some services may also be funded by third parties such as insurers or organisations.
Your out-of-pocket cost is the difference between the fee charged and any rebate you receive. If you’re unsure how this applies to your situation, our reception team is happy to help you understand likely costs before you book.

For compensation claims, please provide your approved/active claim number, insurer details, and GP referral at the time of booking.
We are unable to accept interstate or Comcare claims.
Where an insurer does not cover a service or cancellation fee, the client remains responsible for payment.
We can invoice your plan manager (plan-managed) for services funded under Capacity Building – Improved Daily Living (line item 15_054_0128_1_3).

Assessments are not covered by Medicare. Some private health funds may provide a rebate — please check with your fund.
We accept payment by EFTPOS, secure online card payment via Stripe, direct deposit, and cash.
For private/self-funded sessions, payment is due on the day of your appointment. A reduced rate applies when fees are paid in full on the day.
If a private/self-funded invoice remains unpaid for more than 7 days and no prior arrangement has been made, a $15 overdue account administration fee may be added, and we may place future appointments on hold or require pre-payment to secure further bookings.
If a third-party funder (for example Medicare, an insurer, NDIS plan manager, employer or EAP provider) does not cover any portion of your fee, you are responsible for any gap or shortfall.
