Pricing

Here is everything you need to know about fees, NDIS coverage, rebates and payment plans.
If you have additional questions feel free to email us at admin@diverseandthriving.com.au.

Fees

The cost of an individual 50-minute telehealth or walk & talk appointment is $190.

 

For in-home therapy (offered only for children) there will be additional travel charges. Get in touch and we can clarify these costs for you.

Group therapy is priced on a sliding scale of $40–$100 per 2-hour session on a PAY-WHAT-YOU-CAN basis.

You will be asked to select your own fee (no questions asked!) when you enrol into a Diverse & Thriving Group. The fee you pay will make no difference to your experience in the group or the resources you can access. We are hoping this will allow us to offer more affordable support to those who need it!

If you would like a suggestion for what to pay you can follow this income-based scale. However, we understand that income is just one of the many complex factors in financial wellbeing so please choose an amount that suits you.

  • Less than $35,000pa: $30

  • $35,000—$55,000pa: $50

  • $55,000—$75,000pa: $70

  • $75,000—$90,000pa: $85

  • More than $90,000pa: $100

We are working on our NDIS registration. Unfortunately, for now, we can only accept self-managed or plan-managed NDIS plans.

rebates

Unfortunately, for now, we can't provide rebates through Medicare or private health insurance.

financial assistance

We understand that there can be financial hurdles to accessing mental health care – especially with the current cost of living.

​

We are happy to arrange a payment plan that suits your needs. We also have a small number of low-cost places available for those who qualify. Group therapy is another more cost-effective option.

 

Alternatively, we are happy to assist you in finding other services that are affordable to you.

Please get in touch to discuss these options.

Diverse and Thriving acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work, the Bunurong People of the South Eastern Kulin Nation. We recognise their continuing connection to the land and waters and the continuation of cultural, spiritual, and educational practices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples. We thank them for protecting this beautiful land and its ecosystems since time immemorial. We acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded. We pay our respects to Elders past and present and extend that respect to all First Nations Peoples across Australia.
