Bulk Billing
Limited bulk billing appointments may be available in exceptional circumstances, subject to clinician availability and eligibility criteria.

Cancellation Policy
Appointment times are reserved specifically for each client. Providing adequate notice of cancellation allows us to offer the appointment to another person who may be waiting for care. We ask that you provide at least 48 business hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment. Where less than 48 business hours' notice is provided, or an appointment is not attended without prior notice, a cancellation fee may apply.
Please note:
• Medicare rebates and private health insurance rebates cannot be claimed for cancellation or non-attendance fees.
• Cancellation fees are the responsibility of the client and are payable prior to booking further appointments.
• NDIS participants will be charged in accordance with the current NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits and the terms of their Service Agreement.
We understand that unexpected circumstances can arise. Where there are exceptional or unforeseen circumstances, cancellation fees may be reduced or waived at the discretion of your treating psychologist.
