​

Medicare Rebates / Mental Health Care Plan:

Every person is entitled to up to 10 subsidised psychology sessions per calendar year.

A GP or psychiatrist can provide a Mental Health Care Plan to receive Medicare rebates. The current rebate when seeing a Clinical Psychologist is  $145.25 per session, leaving an out-of-pocket cost of $104.75 per session (within standard hours) ($124.75 from 1 March 2026).

Private Health Funds:

Private Health Fund members may be eligible to claim rebates for psychology sessions, depending on individual cover. 

​

BUPA Open Arms:

I'm a registered provider with BUPA Open Arms to support ADF and Defence Eligible Personnel.

DVA Funding:

Veterans in Australia have access to fully funded clinical psychology services through the Department of Veterans' Affairs (DVA). To access this scheme, veterans can obtain a referral from their GP. 

​

Third-Party / Insurance Funding:

Unfold Psychology & Counselling welcomes clients whose sessions are funded by ReturnToWorkSA and other insurers such as CPT (Compulsory Third Party). 

​

Cancellation Policy / Fees

Late cancellations (less than 24h) or non-attendance incur a fee. Details are outlined in the Client Agreement & Informed Consent Form that each client sights and signs before commencing therapy.
