The specific approach used will depend on the practitioner you are matched with and what is most appropriate for your individual situation. Your psychologist will explain their recommended approach and why it suits your circumstances. You are encouraged to ask questions throughout.

Medicare Rebates and NDIS Support

Medicare

Eligible clients with a valid GP Mental Health Treatment Plan or eligible referral may be able to claim Medicare rebates when they see an eligible registered psychologist or other eligible Medicare provider. Medicare rebates do not apply to every counselling session or every practitioner type.

If you would like to use Medicare rebates, our intake team can help explain which practitioners and appointment types may be eligible. Your GP, psychiatrist, or paediatrician determines referral eligibility. Speak with them about whether a Mental Health Treatment Plan is appropriate for your circumstances.

NDIS

Eligible NDIS participants may be able to use their plan funding for our services where the support is reasonable and necessary, related to their disability support needs, and included under the relevant funding category. Therapy Near Me can support self-managed and plan-managed participants, depending on the participant's plan and service requirements. Our intake team can help clarify whether our services are appropriate for the participant's goals, funding category, and support needs.

Private Sessions

Psychology sessions are available without a GP referral on a private-pay basis. Contact our team on 1800 632 763 or visit our Fees and Rebates page for current pricing.

⚠ Important: Medicare rebate amounts are set by the Australian Government and are subject to change. Rebates do not apply to all practitioners or session types. Confirm eligibility with your GP and via Services Australia at servicesaustralia.gov.au. NDIS plan inclusions, applicable support categories, and pricing are determined individually and subject to change.
