Appointments

Face to face appointments are held on Wednesday and Thursdays in Balgowlah at Holixir Women’s Wellness Centre.

Telehealth appointments are held on Monday mornings, or also on Wednesday and Thursday if preferred.

Fees:

The fee is $240 for a 50-minute consultation. This is below the Australian Association of Psychologists (AAPI) National Schedule of Recommended Fees 2023-2024 standard consultation fee of $300. 

Rebates:

You do not need a GP referral to make an appointment. However, if you would like to access Medicare rebates, a GP referral is required. If you are referred through a Mental Health Care Plan from your GP, you are entitled to 10 claimable sessions per calendar year. The rebate for each session is $93.35.

Private health rebates can also be claimed if psychological services are accessible under your level of cover. Please contact your health fund to check if you are eligible.

Changes & Cancellations:

We have a 48 hour (2 business days) cancellation policy which gives us adequate time to offer the appointment to other clients in need of support. When you book a session, that hour is allocated to you. If you do not attend your appointment or fail to cancel within 48 hours (or 2 business days), you will be charged the full fee for the session. Rebates are not available for payments on late cancellations.

We understand that some unanticipated events happen, and we ask that you consider changing to a telehealth appointment instead to prevent a disruption to your treatment. However, if you absolutely cannot attend, please contact the clinic as soon as possible so that we can allow someone else to fill your appointment.
