Welcoming new clientsin person and online across Sydney
We can arrange for a broad range of Psychological Assessments and Psychologist Reports. Psychological assessments are normally sought when a third party wishes to obtain a formal diagnosis or report, including:
Clients or Lawyers requiring assessment can contact us on Tel: (02) 8205 0566.
Fees and charges apply depending on the scope of the assessment conducted including the number of face to face assessment sessions conducted as well as the length and scope of the final report.
Typically a Psychologist will meet with the client and will conduct some formal tests as well as conducting a clinical interview. A report provides you or your client with an expert assessment of current functioning or level of injury.
Extra charges may apply for reports required urgently.
We welcome your enquiry.

Questions
Questions
Before you book
Do I need a referral?
No referral is needed to start. For Medicare rebates, ask your GP about a Mental Health Treatment Plan. Please speak to our team about your options.
How soon can I get an appointment?
Most new clients are seen within days, sooner by telehealth. Many of our practices offer early morning, evening and weekend appointments, and our intake team will find the times that suit you.
Can I see someone in person or online?
Yes, you can choose either. You can see a clinician at one of our practices across Sydney, the coast and the Illawarra, or by video from anywhere in Australia, and many clients switch between the two.
What happens in the first session?
Your clinician listens to what’s brought you in, asks about your goals, and agrees to a plan with you. There is never any pressure to share more than you’re ready to.
What are the fees, and can I claim Medicare?
Sessions run for 55 minutes, and the fee depends on who you see. Counsellors start from $150, social workers and psychologists from $200, and clinical psychologists from $230. With a GP Mental Health Treatment Plan, a Medicare rebate may apply to sessions with a psychologist or a registered mental health social worker, so please speak to our staff about your options.
