A referral is not required to see our psychologists. However, significant rebates from Medicare may be available if you see your GP beforehand to access whether you meet the requirements for referral under the following schemes: Better Access Scheme via a GP Mental Health Care Plan, Enhanced Primary Care Plan, and Eating Disorders Psychological Treatment. Please note that Medicare continues to provide 10 additional sessions per calendar year under the Better Access scheme due to the continued impacts of COVID-19 on the mental health of Australians. Rebates are available for in person, telephone and telehealth (online) sessions. For more information, please see:

In addition, many private health insurance funds provide a rebate for consultations with a Psychologist depending on level of cover. Some health insurers require a medical referral. Please contact your health insurer for specific details of your cover.
