Psychotherapy Melbourne fees

I offer 50 minute sessions at the following rates:

$170 during business hours

$180 outside business hours

Limited concession spaces for low income earners are offered when available.

While at this time Medicare rebates for psychotherapy are unavailable, people seeking long-term, comprehensive treatment (e.g., trauma, attachment issues) generally find that the total cost is favourable when weighed against alternative therapies such as Psychology which can have higher costs over time.

Private Health Insurance and Extras Cover

Counselling and psychotherapy can attract a benefit from private health/extras insurers. This depends on the particular insurer, policy and provider-recognition arrangements. The following health funds offer benefits, though not all policies cover all services and it’s best to check your particular policy:
