fee information
Session Fees
A standard 50-minute session costs $245.
An extended 80-minute session costs $390 (required for child/family assessments and couple’s therapy).
Medicare Rebates
A GP referral and mental health care plan is required to receive a medicare rebate for 10 sessions with a psychologist per calendar year, giving you a rebate of $98.95 per session.
You do not need a GP referral to attend kinsight psychology, only to receive medicare rebates.
Depending on your policy and coverage, your private health insurance may also cover a portion of the cost of some sessions once 10 medicare-rebated sessions have been exhausted.
Couple’s therapy sessions are not eligible to receive a medicare rebate.
Out-of-Pocket Costs
With a current GP referral and mental health care plan, the out-of-pocket cost of a standard 50-minute session is $146.05.
Workers Compensation & NDIS
Dr Glassman is an accredited workers compensation provider and is also able to see clients on self-managed plans through the NDIS.
Cancellation Policy
As session times are in high demand, we require at least 24 business hours notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment. Except in the event of an emergency, you will be liable for the full session fee if you do not give sufficient notice. Late cancellations impact both clients who are waiting for a session and your psychologist who has prepared for your session.
Telehealth sessions can be offered as an alternative should you be unwell and unable to attend in person.
A text message reminder will be sent to you three days prior to your appointment.
frequently asked questions
How do I make an appointment?
You can call us on (02) 8998 3200 or 0458 405 470, email info@kinsight.com.au or use our contact page to enquire about booking a session. Our admin team will need to speak with you over the phone to offer you a suitable session time, collect basic information, and answer any questions you may have.
What can I expect from my first session?
We ask that you arrive 10-15 minutes prior to your first session to complete consent and information forms (these can also be emailed to you beforehand). In the first session, your psychologist will get to know you, your presenting concerns, and any relevant aspects of your life history, in detail. Although this session is focused on gathering information and exploring your concerns rather than beginning treatment, many people find it helpful and relieving to share their story in a supportive space with an experienced and empathetic listener.
How many sessions will I need?
As individuals’ concerns and reasons for seeking therapy will vary, it is difficult to predict how many sessions you will need prior to meeting you. Some people benefit from short-term therapy (6 to 15 sessions), while others are better supported with longer-term therapy. Session frequency will also vary across individuals and will be discussed with your psychologist in your first session.
