Funding Streams Available

Medicare

If you have a Mental Health Treatment Plan (MHTP) from your GP, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate for counselling sessions. The Medicare rebate reduces your out-of-pocket cost.

Private Health Insurance

We work with most major private health insurers like HCF, BUPA and Medibank. Depending on your extras cover, you may be able to claim a rebate for sessions. Please check with your health fund to confirm your eligibility.

Victims Services

If you have been approved for counselling under the NSW Victims Support Scheme, your sessions are fully covered. This means no out-of-pocket fee applies.
