FAQ
-
Is Adsum Psychology for women only?
I provide services for women, femmes and non-binary people only. I am passionate about supporting women, femmes and non-binary individuals based on the unique challenges these population groups face.
-
How long is an appointment?
All appointments last 50-60 minutes.
-
How much does an appointment cost?
A standard appointment is $240. This cost applies for in-person appointments as well as telehealth appointments. After hours and weekend appointments are an additional $20 per hour.
-
Do I need a referral?
You do not need a GP referral to make an appointment with me. However to receive a Medicare rebate you will need to obtain a referral from your GP under a Mental Health Care plan.
-
Is there a Medicare rebate?
Yes! Medicare rebates to the value of $96.65 per session are available with a referral from a GP or psychiatrist. Medicare Rebates can be claimed directly following your appointment.
-
Do you bulk bill?
No unfortunately Adsum psychology do not offer bulk billing at this stage.
-
Can I use my private health insurance?
Please reach out to your private health insurance provider to inquire about potential partial reimbursements for psychological consultations.
Regrettably, Adsum Psychology is unable to handle private health claims on your behalf. If you wish to submit a claim for a private health rebate, kindly inform me, and I will send through the necessary invoice.
-
What if I need to cancel my appointment?
A minimum of 48 hours' notice is needed to modify a scheduled appointment. Any changes made within this 48-hour window will result in a full cancellation fee, payable at the time of cancellation. Failure to attend a scheduled appointment without notice will incur a "no-show" fee equivalent to the full session cost.
-
Do you provide reports and assessments?
Unfortunately not! I exclusively offer psychotherapeutic sessions and do not conduct sessions for the specific purpose of generating medico-legal reports (such as court reports, special consideration letters, medical exemptions, etc.) or to fulfill mandated court or legal obligations.
Additionally, our services are not intended for third-party funding arrangements, including NDIS, Workcover, VOCAT, etc.
We do however see clients funded through TAC.
-
Do you see adolescents?
No, unfortunately I only provide services to women and femmes aged 18+.
