Telehealth sessions:
How is Telehealth conducted?
We provide telehealth video consultations via Zoom, Skype, Face-Time, Messenger, or WhatsApp. We can also conduct sessions via phone call (voice only, no video) if you prefer.
Does telehealth work as well as in-person sessions?
Yes. When comparing telehealth to in-person therapy, most studies find telehealth is as effective as in-person therapy, and may be superior in some cases (Krzyzaniak, 2021). Additionally, telehealth is as effective as in-person therapy in terms of client satisfaction and therapy relationship (Haydon et al., 2021).
Are Medicare rebates available for telehealth?
Yes. Medicare rebates for telehealth consultations are the same as those for face-to-face consultations. Please see our Fees, Rebates, and Payments page for details.
On-site sessions.
On-site session are where Stuart comes to you. This could be a home visit, or at a place of your choosing, such as where you train, perform, or compete.
Please note that on-site sessions are available to limited clientele and within the ACT only.
Are Medicare rebates available for onsite sessions?
Some on-site sessions are eligible for Medicare rebates. Please see our Fees, Rebates, and Payments page for details. To be eligible, you must have a Mental Health Care Plan and your referral must indicate that you would benefit from sessions conducted outside of consulting rooms.
