Psychology
Every default made sense once. We work to understand the patterns that shape how you think, feel, and cope, then gently build new ones beside them. For adults and children alike, it is a calm, curious space to work out what a pattern is doing and find a steadier way forward, at a pace that feels right.
Telehealth sessions are available Australia-wide, so you can meet with us from wherever feels comfortable. In-person sessions are available for NDIS participants whose plans fund travel in Melbourne.
Where we focus
Neurodivergence
We are a neurodiversity-affirming practice. Many of the people we see are neurodivergent, living with Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, or both. We start by understanding how someone experiences the world rather than trying to change who they are. From there, we help make sense of what feels hard and find a way through that fits.
Anxiety and Depression
The worry that will not switch off, the heaviness that makes everything harder, the sense of being stuck. These are some of the most common reasons people reach out, and some of the most workable. Together we make sense of what is going on and find steadier ground, at a pace that suits you.
Stress and Burnout
When everything feels like too much and the tank is empty, running on stress for too long takes a real toll on both the mind and the body. We help you understand what has worn you down, find room to breathe again, and slowly build a steadier, more sustainable way of carrying everything that life asks of you.
Ways to Fund Psychology
-
With a Mental Health Treatment Plan and GP referral, Medicare covers a set number of sessions each year. Most are charged at our standard fee, with the rebate claimed back after each appointment. We also keep a limited number of bulk-billed places for clients facing hardship. If cost is a barrier, talk to us, we will always try to find a way forward.
-
If you have private health insurance with extras cover, you may be able to claim a rebate on psychology sessions. Cover differs from fund to fund and policy to policy, so it is worth checking your level of cover directly with your insurer. One thing to note, you can use either a Medicare rebate or a private health rebate for a session, not both for the same appointment.
-
We welcome NDIS participants who have psychology funded in their plan. Because we are a registered NDIS provider, we can work with you whatever way your plan is managed, self-managed, plan-managed, or agency-managed. Not sure how your plan works? That is completely normal, and we are happy to help you make sense of it.
-
You do not need a referral or a plan to see us. You are welcome to book privately and pay for sessions directly, which suits people who would rather keep things simple or who do not have a referral in place. Get in touch and we will let you know the fee and how to get started.
