Pricing & Medicare

You do not need a referral to see a Psychologist at Seed Psychology.
However, if you’d like to claim a Medicare rebate, you will need a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) from your GP.

With a MHCP, you may be eligible for rebates on up to 10 sessions per calendar year. These sessions can be used at any psychology clinic of your choice.

To access Medicare psychology rebates, book an appointment with your GP and ask for a Mental Health Care Plan. Most referrals begin with 6 sessions, with the option to access 4 more after a review. Referrals can also be provided by a psychiatrist or paediatrician.

You can also access therapy via:

• Private booking – book directly without a referral and pay privately
  
• Private health insurance – rebates may apply; check with your fund
  
• TAC – we do not offer TAC-funded sessions, but we can help you connect with a trusted provider
  
• WorkSafe Victoria – not currently available at Seed, but our team can recommend other services

NDIS (agency-managed only) – we support NDIS participants with agency-managed funding; we are not able to accept plan-managed or self-managed referrals

Individual Therapy Sessions

• Private clients (no referral): $255 – $285
  
• Clients with a MHCP: $230 – $285
• Medicare rebates: $96.65 – $141.85 per session (depending on the clinician)

Our client care team will process your Medicare claims for you after each session. 

Private Health Insurance

If you have extras cover, private health insurance may provide rebates. Check your individual policy for coverage and claiming options.

Reports & Assessments

Some of our Psychologists offer assessment services.

We value your time and understand that plans can change, however, late cancellations often mean other clients miss out on support, and our clinicians lose valuable time.

We ask that you provide at least two full business days’ notice to cancel or reschedule your appointment.

• Cancellations made with less than two business days’ notice will incur a 50% cancellation fee.

Please note: Medicare rebates do not apply to cancellation fees.
