Work Cover and Return to Work
Safe House Psychology has a number of Workcover and SIRA approved clinicians, who can provide services in clinic, or via telehealth.

Fee Guidelines
At Safe House Psychology, we aim to keep mental health support as accessible as possible.
The Australian Psychological Society’s recommended fee for a 46–60 minute psychology session is $318 for 2025–2026. Our session fees are set well below this recommended fee, and we offer a range of services to support affordable access to care.
Because fees and rebates can vary depending on the type of appointment, clinician, and referral pathway, we encourage you to contact our friendly team so we can explain the fees, rebates, and expected out-of-pocket costs clearly before you book.
Your out-of-pocket cost may also be reduced if you are eligible for a Medicare rebate under a valid Mental Health Care Plan.
Medicare rebates from 1 July 2026 are:
-
General Psychologist: $101.55
-
Clinical Psychologist: $149.05
