How do we begin the therapeutic journey together?
The process starts with an initial intake session where we discuss your history, present concerns, and any specific therapy goals you may have. From there, we move forward together, shaping a therapy approach that feels right for you.
How much do you charge per session?
Our standard session fee is $200 for a 50-minute consultation. If you are on a Mental Health Care Plan or Eating Disorder Management Plan, Medicare will cover some of the cost. See the Rebates page for further information.
Are Medicare rebates available for our sessions?
Yes, we are registered Medicare providers. To access the Medicare rebate of $145.25 per session* you will need a valid Mental Health Care Plan or Eating Disorder Management Plan from your GP. We highly recommend organising your referral and Plan prior to your first session.
*Session limits apply. Medicare rebate amounts are updated each year. Please refer to Medicare to confirm the current rebate amount for telehealth clinical psychology sessions.
I work full-time. Do you offer after-hours appointments?
Yes, we offer a limited number of evening appointments Monday-Thursday, as well as Saturday appointments. The after-hours surcharge of $20 applies to all Saturday appointments and weekday appointments that begin after 5pm.
How many sessions will I need?
Therapy is a highly individualised journey. While some find clarity in 6-10 sessions, many prefer long-term engagement for delving deeper and addressing long-standing patterns. We will regularly review our progress together to ensure the pace matches your needs.
Can I book an in-person session?
Inner World Psychology is online-only, which allows us to maintain a flexible, accessible service. Many clients value the comfort and discretion of attending from their own space, along with the convenience of not needing to travel.
How does an online (telehealth) psychology appointment work?
Telehealth appointments take place via a secure, encrypted video platform, with a strong emphasis on privacy and confidentiality. You’ll receive a private link to join your session at the scheduled time, making the process simple and seamless.
