No. Our multi-practitioner clinic in Mornington operates entirely outside the Medicare system, meaning we do not accept or process Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) referrals. This allows our clinic to focus on highly specialised, continuous, and completely confidential psychotherapy, free from government-imposed session caps and reporting restrictions.

Many of our Mornington Peninsula clients intentionally choose our private practice over Medicare-subsidised options. Choosing private, self-funded psychotherapy offers significant clinical and practical advantages:No Mental Health Diagnosis Required: To claim a Medicare rebate, a GP must assign you a formal mental health diagnosis on your permanent medical record. Private therapy protects your medical history, keeping it completely separate.Unlimited, Continuous Support: Medicare caps care at just 10 subsidised sessions per calendar year. True, lasting healing and personal transformation often require consistent, long-term weekly support, and usually more than 10 sessions.Total Privacy & Absolute Confidentiality: Because we do not answer to Medicare, your records stay strictly within our private Mornington clinic, independent of health insurance companies or government databases.Skip the GP Waitlists: You do not need to wait weeks for a GP triage appointment just to get a referral. You can reach out and book with us immediately.Access to Specialised Modalities: Advanced, deep-healing therapies—such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic therapies, Interpersonal Therapy and Attachment Repair—often sit outside the rigid Medicare framework.Holistic Growth, Not Just Symptom Management: Medicare-subsidised care is short-term and crisis-driven. Private psychotherapy focuses on your entire life landscape, relationship patterns, and self-discovery.

Yes. We have a specialist couples and family counsellor on our Mornington team who works exclusively with relationship distress, communication breakdown, and systemic family issues.
