Assessments - Individual Fee Payer (Private Health Fund or Privately Funded)
We offer a maximum fee guarantee on all our assessment reports, meaning that you will never pay more than our maximum fee for any assessment. As our assessment pricing is based on the time taken by our experienced clinicians, in many cases your actual fee may be less than the maximum.
With Evolve Wellbeing Psychology, you have certainty and peace of mind knowing what your maximum cost exposure could be, regardless of how much time our assessment process takes or the complexity of your case.

Assessments - Third Party Payer
Our assessment pricing is based on the time taken by our experienced clinicians to complete a comprehensive assessment report. The hourly rate is $255.00.
Assessment Billing Policy
The initial appointment (1.5 hours) cost of $382.50 is required upfront and counts towards our maximum fee guarantee. The initial appointment will determine the best assessment type for your needs without you having to incur the potential full cost of your assessment report upfront.
Should the clinician recommend a full assessment, 50% of the maximum fee is due before subsequent appointments are booked, with the remainder of the fee (if any) due when we have completed your comprehensive assessment report.
If there is a third party billing arrangement (i.e. someone else is paying for the assessment report), alternative arrangements are available. Please contact our Client Support Team for further information.
GST (Goods and Services Tax)
Psychological services are generally exempt from GST and all our prices are exclusive of GST. If GST becomes payable on any product or service we offer, we will advise you of this.
Cancellation Policy
If you cancel your appointment more than 48 hours before the scheduled appointment time, you will incur no cancellation fee for this.
If you cancel your appointment between 24 and 48 hours before the scheduled appointment time, you will incur a cancellation fee of $55.00.
If you cancel your appointment less than 24 hours before the scheduled appointment time, you will incur a cancellation fee of $110.00.
If you fail to attend for a scheduled appointment, you will incur a no-show fee equal to 100% of the full fee applicable to your appointment.
Any outstanding cancellation or no-show fees incurred by you must be paid before any additional appointments can be booked.
In the event that you cancel or fail to attend two scheduled appointments consecutively, the practice retains the right to offer future appointment availability to other clients in priority.
By booking an appointment with our practice, you agree to the terms of our cancellation policy.
Hardship and Concessional Rates
In keeping with our mission, vision and values, we have a concessions policy for existing clients who experience financial hardship. If you need to access concessional rates, please contact our Client Support Team and complete the necessary application form. Granting concessional rates to a client is not automatic and depends on a number of factors. In the event the practice agrees to apply a concessional rate to your appointment, terms and conditions will apply.
