Waiting times for appointments
 You may noticed that over the past couple of years the waiting period to see a Psychologist has increased.

At inSync for life Psychology we do all we can to get you in to see a Psychologist as soon as possible.
Unfortunately however, there is often a waiting time to see one of our clinicians.

However... if the matter is urgent or if you don't want to wait, there are alternatives.....

First:
We can refer you to one of our highly trained and experienced
Registered Counsellors!

All of our Counsellors are Registered with an appropriate regulatory body such as the Australian Counselling Association: 
Australia's largest single registration body for Counsellors and Psychotherapists

If you are referred to one of our Registered Counsellors, you should know:
  • you may be eligible for private health fund rebates - please check with your fund: Medicare rebates under a Mental Health Care Plan are not available
  • your Counsellor will advise your Doctor of your referral and provide an outline of your counselling plan (with your permission)
  • the Counsellor will provide updates of your counselling to your Doctor (again, with your permission)
Make an appointment with one of our counsellors
another alternative to waiting:
You can be seen by an Intern Psychologist, or a 5th Year Masters of Psychology student

Both our interns and student placements have completed a university degree and receive regular supervision from Steve, our Principal Psychologist.

The cost to see our interns is the same out-of-pocket amount you would pay if you were referred under a Mental Health Care Plan by your doctor.

The cost for counselling from our Masters student on placement varies but will be no more than your normal out-of-pocket expenses to see a registered psychologist. It may even be less.

Both our interns and Masters degree students provide counselling in a wide variety of areas and work under the same code of ethics as our other clinicians. With your permission, they will also provide feedback to your doctor.

When requesting an appointment, ask our friendly admin staff for an intern or student appointment.
