Telehealth Services & Rebates
Amidst the enormous challenges of the last two years, the Australian government’s support of telehealth psychology has been a very positive outcome. I provide online clinical psychology telehealth assessment and treatment via a secure and easy to use software platform. All that is needed is an internet connection, a device and an email address. It does not matter where in Australia you are located as telehealth offers great flexibility.
While it is not necessary to have a referral for clinical psychology, a referral may entitle you to access financial rebates. Telehealth clinical psychology services are provided through a variety of funding schemes such as:
- Medicare
- Private Health Insurance
- National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)
- WorkCover
- Department of Veterans Affairs
- Transport Accident Commission (TAC)
