Assessments vary in cost depending on the complexity and unique referral questions you would like answered. Assessment components are charged at my hourly rate. Please note that pricing for assessments is structured and rebated differently than for MHCPs. Please send a query to further discuss. This page has more information about the Medicare items for Complex Neurodevelopmental Disorders and eligible disabilities, which may be applicable.

Yes, there are Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) rebates available for people under the age of 25, for the assessment and treatment of what Medicare calls "complex neurodevelopmental conditions", as well as additional eligible disabilities. Rebates: You can receive a rebate of approximately $96.65 per session at our practice. Out-of-Pocket Costs: The out-of-pocket cost is $148.35 per session. Referral Requirements: For autism, ADHD, intellectual developmental disorder, and learning disabilities, you need a valid referral from a paediatrician or psychiatrist to access these rebates. Please Note: We align with the neurodiversity affirming paradigm and do not believe that neurotypes need to be "treated." However, we use the term "treatment sessions" here to align with Medicare language and facilitate referrals.

I sure do. I completed my supervisor training program through Clinical Supervision Services, and I have been a board-approved supervisor since December of 2019. I can supervise the following types of psychologists and provisional psychologists: those completing the 4+2 or 5+1 internship programs those completing placements during an accredited higher degree program those working in addition to higher degree programs those seeking a secondary supervisor in a registrar program overseas-qualified psychologists in an approved-transitional program psychologists who just want supervision or peer-consultation, as we all do at times in order to meet our registration requirements and ethical responsibilities Please note, I do not supervise psychologists who require principal supervision as part of a registrar program.

Yes, during my honours research at the University of Adelaide in 2011, I developed a 4-session curriculum designed to enhance middle school boys' attitudes towards individuals with disabilities. This curriculum featured guest speakers with lived experience of disability, including individuals with intellectual disabilities, Special Olympians, and Paralympians. It also included the screening of "Including Samuel," an award-winning documentary on inclusive education. The positive and significant impact of this educational program on the students' perceptions was published in the Journal of Intellectual & Developmental Disability in 2013. It has been referenced approximately 43 times, according ResearchGate. Moore, D., & Nettelbeck, T. (2013).

I will select a specific intelligence assessment instrument based on client age. I can currently conduct cognitive assessments on clients aged 6 years and 0 months through to 90 years and 11 months. It's best if clients and parents do not "read up" about the assessments beforehand. You will obtain your most accurate results simply by interacting with the testing materials for the first time in our sessions together. If a person has had a previous cognitive assessment, please share this information with me. Firstly, we want to ensure that the past assessment hasn't been conducted too recently, and secondly, we want to be able to compare the last assessment results with the current results to see if there have been any changes. Identifying giftedness is not as simple as measuring a singular IQ score; a range of information is collected. The individual components of giftedness assessment can include: clinical interviewing, cognitive assessment, background information gathering and previous report reading, report writing, and feedback sessions. These components are charged at my hourly rate. Assessments vary in cost depending on the complexity and unique referral questions you would like answered. Giftedness sometimes occurs alongside dyslexia, dysgraphia, autism, and other forms of neurodiversity. If you would like an assessment that answers multiple questions about yourself or your child, this can be negotiated.

- We require at least 48 hours' notice if you need to cancel your appointment. This allows us to offer the time slot to other clients and maintain efficient scheduling. - Providing adequate notice helps us maximise availability for all clients and minimises lost clinical time. Short-notice cancellations often prevent us from offering the slot to someone on our waiting list who might need more time to rearrange their schedule. The fees for cancellations are as follows: - Less than 24 hours notice: the full session fee. - Between 24 to 48 hours notice: up to 50% of the session fee. - If you arrive late to your appointment, please be aware that your appointment will still end at the scheduled time to avoid delays for other clients, and the full fee for the session will be charged. - Many insurance policies and Third-Party funders do not cover fees for late cancellations or missed appointments. These fees are your responsibility. While the NDIS may cover some cancellation fees, there are limitations to this coverage. - If you provide a mobile number or email address, we may send you a reminder message before your appointment. Please confirm your appointment by replying to the reminder or by emailing us at hello@moorepsychology.com. - If you are more than 15 minutes late without notifying us, it will be considered a no-show (late cancellation). The psychologist may no longer be available, and the full fee for a late cancellation within 24 hours may be charged. - Full payment is due within seven (7) calendar days following the date of service, inclusive of cancellation fees. - If payment remains outstanding after seven days, the account will be considered overdue, and a $30 administrative fee may be added to the overdue amount. - No future sessions will be scheduled, and existing bookings will not be honoured until all outstanding fees are paid in full. - Your cooperation with our policy allows us to maintain a high standard of service and ensures that we can be considerate of the needs of all our clients, helping us provide timely psychological care. This policy is in place to respect the time of our clinicians and the needs of all clients seeking our services.
