Frequently Asked Questions

  • The best way is to email me directly at alexander.brown.psych@gmail.com

    You don’t need a referral, but if you have one, send it through along with some brief information about you and your needs.

  • Session rates will vary depending on your circumstances.

    For people with a Mental Health Treatment Plan from their GP, the fee is $244.22 per hour session.

    There is a Medicare rebate of $96.65 available. You will still need to pay the gap fee of $147.57

    For NDIS participants, the hourly rate is $232.99. But your plan will need to be self-managed or plan-managed to use your NDIS funding with me.

    Please note that you cannot use NDIS funding and claim Medicare rebates in the same appointment.

    For psychological assessments and reports, please contact me directly for a quote.

  • Individual therapy sessions run for 50 minutes, with 10 minutes set aside for clinical case management.

    NDIS capacity-building support sessions can often go for longer depending on the nature of your goals.

    Assessment times vary depending on the type of assessment being completed.

  • I only work Fridays in my clinic so my availability is limited, especially for people wanting after-school or after-work appointments.

    My availability changes a lot between the school term/holidays, so contact me to ask about current wait times.
