Focusing on You
Our approach
At AKG Psychology, we provide a non-judgmental and nurturing approach to ensure clients feel comfortable in exploring their issue/s. During the first session, the problem area will be explored, and treatment goals will be formed together with the client. The subsequent sessions will aim in achieving these goals with the use of evidenced-based treatment methods. Clients will have an opportunity to reflect on their progress to live a more fulfilled life.

Fees & rebates
A GP referral and Mental Health Treatment Plan, you will receive $88.25 rebate with a registered psychologist, up to 10 sessions per calendar year. When these sessions are complete you may be eligible for an additional 10 sessions during COVID. This includes sessions via telehealth. When scheduling your GP appointment to obtain the initial referral, it is a good idea to request a longer appointment. This allows time to complete the necessary paperwork.
Please check with your private health insurance provider to ascertain if you are eligible for a rebate for Psychology services. If you are receiving the Medicare rebate, you will be unable to use your health insurance rebate at the same time.
