Psychologist Fees and Appointments
My Psychologist in Adelaide is a full member of the Australian Psychological Society (APS) and uses the APS recommended schedule of fees as a guide. Whilst the Australian Psychological Society’s recommended fee for a 46 to 60 minutes consultation is $260.00 (plus GST, where applicable), our fees for appointments are currently set at $200 per standard consultation. We are not a Bulk Billing practice.
My Psychologist provides a high level of personal service so the psychologist fees that you pay includes more than a face to face psychology consultation and that represents great value for your money.
My Psychologist also offers longer consultations as part of our Couple Connect Counselling service. The fee for a longer 90 minute consultation is currently $280.
NDIS clients are charged $234.83 for an hour as per the NDIS Price Guide.
