REFERRALS

Mental Health Care Plan

A referral is not necessary to book in a session. However, obtaining a referral from your/your child’s General Practitioner, Psychiatrist, or Paediatrician can make you eligible to receive Medicare rebates.
Please consult with your Medical Health Practitioner to see which Mental Health Care Plan and referral is right for you. Your/your child’s Medicare Card details will need to be provided to receive the rebate. The Medicare rebate will be processed automatically for you.

PRIVATE HEALTH COVER

Therapy sessions are able to be claimed with most private health care funds if you are covered. Please check with your private health fund prior to making an appointment.

Once you have paid for a session, all you need to do is take your receipt to your health fund and make the relevant claim. This is only applicable if you are not already using the Medicare rebate.

Sessions are around 50 minutes. During the initial session, the aim is to develop understanding around the purpose of attending therapy as well as establish a person history and goals for treatment.

Following sessions will be a collaboration of building rapport, insight, and awareness, as well as, skills development. This may involve parental co-operation and training.
