Our Process
01
Self-Referral
You don’t need a doctor’s referral and Mental Health Care Plan to start your mental health journey. Simply fill out our easy self-referral form. It takes just a few minutes. Once submitted, our friendly admin team will get in touch to confirm your details and match you with a qualified psychologist who suits your needs.
02
Meet Your Psychologist
Your first session is all about connection. We’ll take the time to understand what brings you to therapy, your goals, and what approach might work best for you. Every psychologist at Tele-Psych is trained to create a comfortable, judgment-free environment where you can talk openly.
03
Begin Your Therapy Journey
Sessions are conducted via secure video call, giving you complete privacy and flexibility. Whether you’re managing anxiety, grief, or simply need someone to talk to, we’ll guide you every step of the way.
We make sure every client knows exactly how online therapy sessions work before they begin - because your comfort and confidence are our priorities.

Important Considerations
-
If you intend to claim rebates through Medicare or Private Health Insurance, you’ll need to select the appropriate referral pathway instead of self-referral.
-
The self-referral fee range is approx $190–240 for a 50-minute session (each psychologist may charge slightly differently).
-
Always ensure your device (computer/tablet/phone) has a good internet connection for a smooth session.
-
If you’re unsure whether self-referral is right for you, we’re happy to help, call us on 1300 820 031 or email reception@tele-psychs.com.au.
