Service Fees, Funds, Schemes, and Rebates

Our service fees at Joplin Clinic are guided by the Australian Psychological Society (APS) recommendation of $267 for a 46-60 minute consultation with a Psychologist. However, we typically set our fees significantly lower to make services more accessible.

Our fee guide outlines the costs for a 50-minute individual consultation. Please note that fees may vary when clinical services are provided under certain third-party services due to extra administrative tasks involved. Also, the fees mentioned do not include any additional processing charges which some third-party payment methods may impose.

We provide Medicare rebate information as a guide only, and encourage clients to consult official Medicare guidelines for accurate details. Eligibility for Medicare rebates relies on an individual’s circumstances and requires a properly prepared referral that complies with Medicare regulations.
