Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS)

Mind Australia now offers psychologist services through the Medicare Benefits Schedule.

Our psychologists provide clinical assessment, interventions and capacity building for clients with mental health, dual disability and/ or complex support needs.

Our clinicians are trained to provide a broad range of therapeutic practices including, but not limited to: 

• Psychoeducation
• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) 
• Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) 
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) 

All our interventions are underpinned by recovery oriented, trauma informed practice. Each clinician regularly undertakes professional development to further their understanding of therapeutic modalities to meet the needs of people accessing our services.  

You will receive an individual plan to equip you with relapse prevention strategies and build capacity to manage your mental wellbeing in the longer term.

There is currently no wait time for the program.

There is a Gap fee charge.

Who is the Medicare Benefits Schedule for?

You will need a referral from your GP for a Mental Health Care Plan. MBS provides up to 10 sessions.

The MBS is available to people who have not had support from another provider for a Mental Health Care Plan in the last 12 months.
