FAQs – Couples & Family Counselling in Gladesville

Do I need a referral?

No, you can self-refer for a psychological assessment. A GP or specialist referral may help with access to rebates or funding pathways (for example, where Medicare, NDIS, WorkCover or CTP are involved). We can discuss this with you before you book.

 

How long does an assessment take?

This depends on the type of assessment and the questions being asked. Most assessments involve an intake session, one or more testing sessions, scoring and analysis, a feedback appointment, and preparation of a written report. Your psychologist will outline an estimated timeline at the start.

 

Are there Medicare rebates?

Rebates for psychometric testing are limited and depend on referral type, item numbers, and clinical needs. We will advise whether any Medicare, NDIS, WorkCover or CTP funding may apply in your situation.

 

Will I receive a report?

Yes. All comprehensive assessments include a written report summarising findings and recommendations. With your consent, we can also provide reports or summaries to your GP, specialist, school, or support coordinator.

 

Can parts of the assessment be completed via telehealth?


Some components, such as history-taking, questionnaires, and feedback sessions, can be completed via telehealth. Many standardised cognitive and diagnostic tests, however, must be administered in person to ensure validity.

 

For general information about psychological testing, you may also wish to visit the Australian Psychological Society website.
