Although MKP Psychology  provides a therapy based practice, on rare occasions  short reports as a Summary of Treatment may be provided. The preparation time for these reports, is charged at $220 per hour plus GST. If you require this service, please make contact for a quote. 

MKP Psychology requires 48 hours notice to reschedule or cancel a session.  This policy is in place to allow Marissa to offer the allocated time to another client who is on the waiting list for an appointment. If you cancel/reschedule with less than 48 hours notice, or if you don't attend your appointment and don't provide any notice you will be charged the full fee for the session. Cancellation fees need to be paid for promptly and future sessions cannot be booked in or honoured if any fees are outstanding. Cancellation fees also attract GST.

​

Marissa understands that sometimes you may be unable to keep an appointment because of sudden illness or an unexpected personal emergency. If this happens to you, please make contact as soon as possible to advise. 

Medicare rebates are available for psychological treatment under the Australian Government’s Better Access to Mental Health Care initiative. If eligible, your GP or Psychiatrist will need to complete a Mental Health Care Plan before referring you. With this plan, you can receive a Medicare rebate for up to individual sessions in a calendar year. 

The rebate you receive back from Medicare for an individual 50min session with a Psychologist is $93.35.  

No you do not require a referral to access psychological services and can attend as a private client if you wish.

If your insurer covers you under ‘extras cover’, you may be entitled to a rebate. Please speak with your private health insurer directly to see if you are eligible for a rebate from them as each company vary with the entitlements and MKP Psychology cannot provide information regarding your eligibility. 

Please note, private health insurance rebates cannot be claimed simultaneously with Medicare rebates for psychology services.
