Frequently asked questions
Read our FAQs to learn more about A Life Logic’s psychology & counselling services and what we can offer you. If you have any unanswered questions then please don’t hesitate to send us a message.
Contact usWhat about privacy and confidentiality?
All counselling services are treated as private and confidential. The information gathered during your sessions is only for assessment, diagnosis and treatment. This helps us provide you with the best possible outcome. As set out by the APS Code of Ethics, limitations to this confidentiality apply if there is an immediate or specified risk of harm to an identifiable person’s safety or if a court of law subpoenas a client’s file.
How much do your services cost?
The standard fee is $175 per counselling session (means tested), with rebates available from Medicare. View our Fees page for more information.
How long is the appointment with the psychologist?
50-60 minutes.
Can I claim my therapy on Medicare?
Yes, A Life Logic is a registered provider with Medicare.
What's the difference between a counsellor, psychologist and a psychiatrist?
A psychiatrist has a medical degree and treats patients primarily with medication.
A psychologist has at least six years of university training to provide empirically validated and proven therapy. They have to be a member of a registration board and continually develop their skills, monitored by that board.
A counsellor does not have a registration board and is not held up to external performance standards. No Medicare rebates are available for a counsellor’s services.
Do I need a referral?
You do not need a referral to book counselling services with us if you pay for the session yourself or claim through your private health fund.
