For Clients:
Medicare Rebates
Clients are eligible to see a psychologist for up to 10 sessions within each calendar year.
Eligibility is based on the diagnosis given to you by your GP. Your GP is required to
complete a referral and a Mental Health Care Plan and can make a referral to Briony Kercheval. Progress will be reviewed by your GP after your first six sessions, whereby an additional four sessions can be obtained.
Seeking help for any psychological issue can often be a stressful, anxiety-provoking experience and may bring about a range of emotions. Therefore, finding the right psychologist for you is really important. Feeling comfortable and at ease within a couple of sessions with your psychologist will enable you to develop trust and rapport. You’ll then be in a position to work in a collaborative way to ensure your needs and goals are being met, and the changes you hope to achieve in your life (as a result of therapy) are much more likely. Your satisfaction with therapy will be reviewed throughout the process.
Appointments run for approximately 50 minutes.
