Referrals

A referral from your General Practitioner (GP), Paediatrician or Psychiatrist is required to access Medicare rebates for psychological therapy sessions. If you do not wish to use any form of insurance, you may self-refer to our therapy services.

If you plan to use private health insurance for your treatment, you do not need a referral.

Written referral is required from your GP, Paediatrician, Psychiatrist, or Legal Representative for all assessment services. You cannot self-refer to assessment services.

Medicare

Medicare rebates are available for psychology services provided under a referral letter and Mental Health Treatment Plan.

A Mental Health Treatment Plan is completed by your GP and provides access to Medicare rebates for up to 10 sessions per calendar year. These sessions can be conducted face to face or via online. 

Your referring GP will schedule a return visit to review your progress after the first six sessions. At this point, your GP will provide a re-referral for an additional four sessions, if required.

As of 1 July 2024, Medicare will rebate: 

  • $141.85 per standard consultation with a Clinical Psychologist

  • $96.65 per standard consultation with a Psychologist

Medicare rebates may be claimed on the day of your session.

When referred by a Psychiatrist or Paediatrician only a referral letter is required. 

Private Health Insurance

Private health insurers may provide rebates for psychology services. Please confirm with your insurance provider the level of cover.
