Hello,

Thank you for choosing me to be part of your journey in some way by booking an appointment with me. Our online appointment booking system does not always show all of our availability so if you do not find an appointment that suits, please do not hesitate to contact our office on (03) 54 823 143 to find out if other appointments are available.

If this is for your first appointment, you are committing to having an initial intake appointment with me. As part of this process we will work together to determine if I am the right fit clinician for you or if someone else at our service may be better suited to you.

These appointments will be booked to occur online via videoconference. If you need the appointment to be in person or over the phone format please contact us on 0354823143 or admin@thrivewellnessandconsulting.com after you have booked your appointment online.

The cost of appointments varies depending on the funding source and the nature of service provided. If you are unsure of the cost of your appointments we can assist you with that. If you are wanting to use NDIS funding to access these sessions and this is going to be your first appointment with our service, please call us on 03 54 823 143 or email us at admin@thrivewellnessandconsulting.com to let us know as we may need to schedule you in for an NDIS intake appointment with a different clinician first.

If a third party is paying for your service the cost may vary (eg: NDIS, Workcover, TAC), please liaise with our staff for more information about funding and any gap payments that may be applicable.

For clients paying for their own appointments (privately) with our service, the cost of sessions with this clinician is $160 for half an hour and $260 for a 50 minute appointment. Medicare rebates available under a Mental Health Care Plan with this clinician. Additional Eftpos and Halaxy processing fees apply. To avoid these additional processing charges, payments can be made via cash or bank transfer.

Please note that when booking appointments online our system automatically requires you to enter your credit card or bank card details to book the appointment. Your card details will be stored securely on your client file on our password and encrypted computer system and our staff are not able to retrieve or identify any of your card details.

If you are booking an appointment for a person under the age of 18 please contact our service to discuss this first as this clinician does not typically provide sessions to those under 18.

Thank you

Kind Regards

Dr Cara Tucker

Clinical Psychologist
