My appointments are 55 minutes, which includes time to process payments and book in future appointments.

You can contact me by email or phone to book in an appointment, see the Contact page for details. If there are specific things you wish to ask me before booking, I am happy to have a brief phone conversation before you decide whether to proceed.

Because my fees are subject to occasional changes, this can be discussed during the initial phone or email contact. I accept cash or card.

If you cancel your appointment with less than 24 hours notice, a cancelation fee will apply. With more than 24 hours notice, there will be no cancelation fee.

Rebates on my fee are available through the Medicare Better Access Mental Health Care initiative; this requires that clients obtain a Mental Health Care Plan from a doctor (General Practitioner or psychiatrist) and enables a client to obtain a $84.80 rebate on up to 10 psychology sessions in a calendar year.

If you have private health insurance that covers Psychology, you will be able to get a rebate on my fees through your Private cover. The amount of the rebate depends on the details of the type of cover you have.

I am registered to provide services funded under: the NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme), Workcover, TAC, and VOCAT (Victims of Crime Assistance Tribunal) and Veteran Affairs.

No referral is required to initiate treatment, however, a referral on a Mental Health Care Plan makes treatment more affordable for clients who meet the criteria for eligibility. I am happy to discuss this with you prior to booking to determine whether you qualify.

Simply make an appointment with a doctor. Check with the Medical Practice first whether a longer consultation is required at that practice for Mental health Care Plans. The doctor will need to make and assessment based on interview and a questionnaire, and will also need my name and address in order to lodge a plan with Medicare. You then bring the Mental Health Care Plan to the appointment with me, and I process your rebate at the time of payment.

Provided that you have not used all 10 sessions in that calendar year, you can use the same plan with me (until the tenth is used), but will need to bring a paper copy of the plan to me so that I can process your rebate.
