Accessible, Transparent and Straightforward

We believe accessing support should be as simple and transparent as possible.

Here Point offers a range of appointment and funding options to help make therapy accessible for individuals, families and professionals seeking support.

If you’re unsure which option is right for you, please get in touch and we’ll help guide you through the most appropriate pathway.

Private Therapy

Accredited Mental Health Social Worker

$210

Private therapy appointments do not require a referral and can be booked directly.

Private therapy may suit people who:

Mental Health Treatment Plans

Accredited Mental Health Social Worker

$210

Rebate is currently $89.50

Eligible clients may access Medicare rebates when seeing an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker with a valid GP Mental Health Treatment Plan and referral.

 

Here Point is not a bulk billing practice.

 

Clients pay the full session fee at the time of their appointment, and if eligible, Medicare will process the rebate directly back to them. As a result, there is a gap payment between the session fee and the Medicare rebate.

DVA & Bupa Open Arms

As per the DVA and Bupa Open Arms fee schedules for mental health social workers

Eligible veterans holding a Gold or White Card may be able to access therapy through DVA or Bupa Open Arms funding pathways with no out of pocket cost.

Private Health Insurance

$210

Depending on your level of cover, some private health insurance providers may contribute towards the cost of therapy sessions.

 

As cover varies between providers and policies, we recommend contacting your health fund directly to confirm eligibility and rebate availability for an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker.

NDIS

As per the NDIS Pricing Arrangements.

Here Point provides capacity-building supports for eligible NDIS participants.

Services are tailored to individual goals, needs and circumstances while supporting wellbeing, independence and community participation.

Funding suitability and service availability should be confirmed before booking.

If you are planning to access services through NDIS funding, please contact us before booking so we can discuss your circumstances and confirm the most appropriate pathway.

Supervision and Mentoring

$150 + GST

Our clinical supervision sessions are designed to support social workers, mental health practitioners, and other helping professionals in their ongoing professional development. 

Supervision provides a confidential and supportive space to reflect on your practice, discuss complex cases, strengthen clinical skills, explore ethical considerations, manage risk, and maintain professional wellbeing. Whether you are newly qualified or an experienced practitioner, our supervision aims to help you build confidence, enhance your practice, and provide the best possible outcomes for your clients.

If you are interested in Group Supervision or Student Placement Supervision, please contact us to discuss further.

Cancellation Policy

We understand that circumstances can change.

 

If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please provide as much notice as possible.

 

Appointments cancelled with less than 48 hours’ notice, or missed appointments without notice, may incur the full session fee.

 

Please contact us as soon as possible if you need to make changes to your appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. A Mental Health Treatment Plan does not make your sessions free. The full consultation fee is paid upfront, and if you are eligible, you can then claim a Medicare rebate for part of the session cost.

No, we are a private billing practice and do not routinely offer bulk billing. If you are experiencing financial hardship, we encourage you to speak with our reception team. We are happy to discuss your circumstances confidentially and explore whether we can assist

To access a Medicare rebate, you will need a valid Mental Health Treatment Plan and referral from your GP. Once your appointment fee has been paid, your rebate can be processed and returned to you through Medicare.

When booking online, we do require a 50% deposit to be paid to secure your appointment. This does not apply to DVA & Bupa Open Arms or NDIS as these appointments are funded by a third party.

Not all insurance providers cover our services. We encourage you to check directly with your health insurance provider to see if you’re policy includes mental health social work.

We process all payments (including government rebates) via our practice software. If you require an alternative method of payment, please contact us to discuss options.
