Face-to-face therapy

Face-to-face therapy is provided in a professional, sound-proof therapy room, overlooking Lane Cove National Park and offering comfort, privacy and a safe space to reflect.

Each appointment is 50 minutes, with 10 mins for administration and treatment planning.

If you have a GP Mental Health Treatment Plan (MHTP) you are eligible to receive a Medicare rebate of $89.65 for up to 10 individual therapy sessions in the calendar year.

If you have an Eating Disorder Treatment Plan (EDTP) you are eligible to receive a Medicare rebate of $89.65 for up to 40 psychology sessions in the calendar year.

Fees:

Dr Salena’s fees are significantly less than the Australian Psychological Society’s (APS)’s recommended rate of $280 for a 45- 60 min session.

For initial assessments, the fee is $235.

For all subsequent sessions, the fee is $215.

Please note that this is not a bulk billing practice.

You may also be able to claim for psychological therapy under your Private Health Insurance, which could cover a significant portion of your fees depending on your level of cover. Please check your policy or call your Insurance Provider to confirm whether psychology services are covered under your existing plan.

Please note, if you are receiving a Medicare rebate for an appointment, you are unable to claim private health insurance on the same appointment.
