Although Medicare does not offer rebates for counselling, the following private health funds do, if you have included it in your cover:
AHM, BUPA, CUA, Doctors Health, Emergency Services Health, Grand United Health, Medibank, Phoenix Health, Police Health, St Luke’s.
You claim directly from the fund and will need an invoice from me to claim.
Cancellation and Refunds Policy
If you can’t attend your session, please give 48-hours notice so we can re-allocate the session. Further, if you have booked for face-to-face and are unwell, contact me to change to phone or Zoom if you can.
if not, we will reschedule the session. Also, cancellations less than 24-hours without a valid reason incur a charge $40. Further, non-attendance without contact or notice forfeits the whole fee. However, we deal with last minute emergencies, illness, family or children issues compassionately on a case-by-case basis, and re-schedule sessions rather than forfeit or charge for them.
