Psychology Appointments

Booking an appointment with our Psychologists

Make an Appointment with Psychologists - Therapy or counselling appointments.

 

Our psychologist-led psychological treatment helps children and adults as they strive for positive well-being. Here’s how to make an appointment with our psychologists. If you are looking only for psychological assessment (IQ, ADHD, Learning, etc.), see here.​

Step 1: GP Mental Health Plan or Referral letter

You will need a Mental Health Treatment Plan from a GP or a referral letter from a Psychiatrist or other eligible specialists (e.g Paediatrician) to be eligible for Medicare rebates. 

​

A referral is not needed for psychological assessment and testing but is desirable to get a letter or reason for a referral from referring practitioner if you have been referred for assessment/testing by a GP/School/Psychiatrist/Paediatrician.

Step 2: Book an Appointment

  • The patient's name

  • Your name (if you are not the patient)

  • GP Mental Health Treatment Plan or referral from a Psychiatrist or Paediatrician. Your practitioner can send the referral directly to us electronically on Healthlink (ID: dolphint) or Argus or via Fax 02 9167 7119

  • Ensure you have a Mental Health Treatment Plan before making a booking.

Step 3: First Appointment

The first appointment will take around 50 minutes. Please arrive at least 15 minutes early and bring the following:

  

  • Medicare card with patients name.

  • GP Mental Health Treatment Plan or referral from a Psychiatrist or Paediatrician if a referral was not already sent.

We recommend both parents attend the appointment with a referred child or adolescent, even if they do not both live with the child. If this is not possible, at least one parent or carer is expected to attend.

 

For adult appointments, partners are encouraged to attend.
