Fees & Services
I work one on one with individual clients and do not offer couples or family therapy. Should a client be under the age of 16, their legal guardian or parent will need to provide consent for them to receive therapy and thus may be involved in some consultations. I work with clients across most age groups (8 years and older).
Psychological Consultations
Psychological consultations are offered in 3 formats:
-
Video Consult
-
Phone Consult
-
Face-to-face Consult
If eligible to receive services under Medicare, you will need to provide a referral and mental health care plan in order to obtain a rebate.
At any point during therapy, if I feel you would benefit from a different practitioner, I will discuss recommendations for a referral to other services and/or practitioners. This includes any requests for reports or letters that I cannot complete at the time.
Reports & Letters
Individuals presenting for therapy with the sole or joint purpose of obtaining a comprehensive psychological report or letter must have an initial consultation to discuss the nature of the document before I will commit to writing it.
Depending on the type of document required and the context it is needed for, I will determine whether I have the necessary skills and time to complete the request. If I deem the request to be feasible, a fee will be negotiated at the time depending on the number of assessments required, the time taken to complete the document and the number of pages.
