Services and Fees

Your first session and any after-hours sessions will incur a $20 surcharge.  Additional charges past on from our merchant facilities to the client include  a 2% credit card surcharge and a $2 fee for processing medicare rebates.

Note that bulk billing is available for clients with no source of income in their household, who are in severe financial difficulty.  A Centrelink Health Care Card or Pension Card together with a medicare card and GP mental health care plan must be presented.

The above fees apply only to private or Medicare referrals.

*Clients referred by their GP  receive Medicare rebates of $84.80 for individual sessions and around $21 for group sessions.  A GP referral for a mental health condition entitles clients to a rebate for 6-10 individual counselling sessions per calendar year, and up to 10 group sessions per calendar year.  Discuss with Richard during your first session, or discuss with your GP prior. You must bring your medicare card and a GP referral to your first session to obtain your rebate.  The Medicare rebate is for psychological counseling sessions only and is not for life coaching services.
