Self Reflections is committed to providing affordable yet highly professional psychological services to all those in our community. All of our psychologists are registered with Medicare Australia and Private Health Funds, enabling rebates to be accessed. We keep our standard fees well below that of industry recommendations.
In addition, we offer concession rates to concession card holders and set aside a limited number of bulk billing appointments each week with each clinician for those in extreme financial difficulties.
Rebates and fees are subject to an annual increase in July each year.
The Australian Psychological Society (APS) recommended hourly fee for psychologists in 2018-2019 is $251.
Our standards fees are:
| Service | Fee |
| Psychologist | $170.00 |
| Clinical Psychologist | $190.00 |
Fees are payable by cash, debit or credit card at the end of the appointment.
Private Health Fund Rebates
All of the Self Reflections psychologists are registered with the Psychologist’s Registration Board and are therefore, approved by private Health Funds for services provided. Most private health funds offer rebates on psychological services if the client has ancillary or extra’s cover. Rebates vary depending on your fund and your level of cover. Contact your health fund for the latest rebate information.
Medicare Rebates
Medicare rebates are available for psychological treatment of eligible mental health conditions. You will be able to claim a proportion of your fees from Medicare if your doctor assesses you to be eligible for psychological services under Medicare, and if you have a referral and a care plan from your doctor. You are able to receive rebates for 10 sessions per calendar year. Referrals are for a maximum of 6 sessions per referral, so you will be required to return to your GP for further referrals or reviews.
