In Person and Telehealth appointments with Debbie are currently available on a Monday and Thursday at 49 Flinders Lane, Maroochydore. Located within Mind and Wellbeing Psychology on the beautiful Sunshine Coast.

To make an appointment please make contact via the contact link or send a text to Debbie on 0432 687 702.

What to Expect:

At your first appointment the focus will be on getting to know you, your background, and your current circumstances. At the end of the initial session we hope to have established shared understanding and plans to help you meet your goals.

For couples I will need to meet with you both to talk about your relationship, how it began and how it has developed over time. We will also explore the reasons why you have come to couples counselling now. A 90 minute initial session is recommended.

A fee schedule is available by making contact with Debbie. Fees are payable at the time of the appointment by credit card or direct deposit.

You do not need a formal referral to access services.

Medicare Rebates with Mental Health Care Plan:

I offer services under the Medicare Better Access to Mental Health initiative. With a valid Mental Health Care Plan from your GP, Psychiatrist, or Paediatrician you are eligible for Medicare rebates for up to 10 sessions per calendar year (with a review after 6 sessions). Please bring your Mental Health Care Plan and your Medicare card to your first appointment to claim the rebate.

Health Fund Rebates:

Psychological appointments are covered by most health funds. Coverage varies so please consult your health fund to confirm. An invoice will be provided so these services can be claimed through your health fund. Health fund rebates cannot be accessed when accessing Medicare rebates.
