Therapy Near Me – Affordable Pricing & Rebates
At Therapy Near Me, we believe mental health care should be both high-quality and accessible. That’s why we keep our pricing transparent and competitive, making it easier for clients to get the support they need without long waits or excessive costs.
NDIS Participants
Our psychology sessions for NDIS participants are $195 per hour – significantly lower than the $232.99 national guide rate set by the NDIS (effective 1 July 2025). This means more of your funding stays available for additional supports and services that can help you reach your goals faster.
Private Clients – Provisional Psychologist
Private clients working with a provisional psychologist pay $145 per session. While this service does not attract a Medicare rebate, it remains a cost-effective option with the same level of care and attention you’d expect from our team.
Private Clients – Registered Psychologist
Private clients seeing a registered psychologist pay $195 per session. With a valid GP Mental Health Treatment Plan, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate:
$98.97 per session with a general psychologist
Medicare rebates are available for up to 10 individual sessions per calendar year.
