Some appointments may be eligible for a Medicare rebate with a valid referral under a Mental Health Treatment Plan.

Medicare rebates generally do not apply to assessments, reports or every appointment type.

No. You can book a private child psychologist appointment without a GP referral. To claim an eligible Medicare rebate, speak with your GP, psychiatrist or paediatrician about an appropriate Mental Health Treatment Plan and referral before the appointment.

The first appointment focuses on understanding your concerns, your child’s strengths, relevant history and current needs. The first session is always with the parent, carer or caseworker.  The psychologist will explain the recommended next steps and proposed care plan.

Therapy supports emotional, behavioural or relationship concerns through an ongoing care plan. A psychological assessment is designed to answer a specific question about areas such as development, learning, attention, behaviour or mental health. Assessment scope, fees and clinician involvement vary according to the referral question and your child’s needs.

For some complex assessments, clinicians may work together or involve a psychologist with additional experience. If you are unsure, contact our team or book an initial consultation so we can recommend the most appropriate pathway.
