You do not need a GP referral to access services. You may self refer and book your own appointment. However, a GP referral with a Mental Health Care Plan allows access to a Medicare rebate on fees. You may also access my services through your NDIS Plan
Standard 50-minute consultations attract a $250 fee.
Medicare or private health insurance rebates may apply. For example, clients referred by their GP on a Mental Health Care Plan are eligible to claim a Medicare rebate for up to 10 sessions per calendar year. If you do not have a current Mental Health Care Plan through your GP but you do have ancillary cover through your private health fund insurer, you may be able to access rebates for psychological services.
You may also access my services through your NDIS Plan.
Welcome to my clients who are living outside of Australia. I have been providing online therapy to clients living in many different countries outside of Australia for the past five years.
I have worked as a Clinical Psychologist in the United Kingdom and Europe where I lived for a number of years. I now provide online therapy for overseas clients.
My clients have engaged well with online therapy and it has provided the convenience of maintaining therapy despite a moving lifestyle (eg. For clients working across countries). Therapy is only provided in English at this stage so you will need to be able to speak English.
Therapy is provided through the Zoom platform, and I will forward you a link prior to your session. The fee per session is $250 and is paid by bank transfer prior to the session.
You can make bookings directly to me by email: profhelenstain@gmail.com. You can also free phone me to discuss your therapy needs on BusinessWhatsApp: (+61) 0486019095.
I look forward to engaging in your therapy journey with you.
I understand that sometimes cancellation is unavoidable. However, I ask that you provide as much notice as possible when cancelling an appointment. Sessions cancelled (or unattended) without 24 hours notice will incur a full fee.
Please note that late cancellation/non-attendance fees are not eligible for Medicare or private health insurance rebates.
I am monitoring the health and government guidelines related to Covid-19 to ensure my working environment is safe for clients. I will continue to provide psychological services for my clients, preferably as face to face sessions. However, should the guidelines change and prohibit this, or you are anxious about attending in person, then therapy may be provided online. Please contact me if you have any questions in relation to this.
Telehealth services are also available to any clients who prefer online therapy to face to face sessions. Thus, therapy is available to people living in rural and remote locations or living internationally.
In the event of a mental health emergency please contact one of the following:
