Fees

Our services encompass psychological therapy. Medicare rebates are accessible with a Mental Health Treatment Plan (MHTP). We also cater to private-paying and those with private health insurance.

 

Gentle Growth Psychology offers services to clients who self-manage their NDIS funding. Sessions are paid for privately, and clients can then submit their invoices directly to the NDIS for reimbursement.

 

Each standard session lasts 50 minutes:

- Initial and Standard Appointment: $250

- Hours (appointments from 5 pm onwards): $260

 

Payments processed on the day of your appointment via Zanda, a secure online payment platform. For your information, the Australian Psychological Society suggests a standard fee of $318 for a 50-minute session (2025–2026).​

 

You do not need a referral to book an appointment with a psychologist. However, to access Medicare rebates, you will need a Mental Health Care Plan or Eating Disorder Plan from your GP or psychiatrist. Rebates may also be available through your private health insurance, and we recommend checking with your insurer prior to your first session.

Cancellation & Rescheduling Policy

​

Please provide as much notice as possible if you need to change or cancel your appointment. This allows us to offer the time to another client who may be waiting for support.

​

Appointments cancelled or rescheduled with more than 24 hours’ notice will not incur a fee.

Changes made within 24 hours of your scheduled session time will incur 50% of the full session fee.

​

We understand that unexpected circumstances can arise. If we are able to fill your appointment time, the cancellation fee may be reduced or waived at our discretion.

​

Thank you for your understanding and for helping us offer timely appointments.
