Book A Psychology Consultation
Getting started with a psychologist at Elyséa HEALTH doesn’t require a referral. If you’d like to claim a Medicare rebate, a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) from your GP will cover that. Upload any relevant documents below, and our team will take it from there.
Psychology Appointment Types
Standard Or Priority Psychology Appointment?
Pick whichever timeline suits you. We’ll aim to get you into your first psychology session as early as clinician availability allows.
Standard Psychology Appointment
A good fit for routine consultations and ongoing sessions with your psychologist.
- Typical Wait Time: 1–3 weeks
Priority Psychology Appointment
For patients who'd prefer to be seen sooner, offered when earlier availability opens up.
- Typical Wait Time: Within 3 business days
Priority appointments depend on the psychologist’s current availability.

What To Expect Once You've Booked
Once we receive your details, our team checks whether a referral or Mental Health Care Plan applies to your booking, then matches you with a psychologist suited to what you’re looking for. We’ll reach out, usually within two business days, to settle on a time.
Elyséa HEALTH team will sort anything still outstanding with you directly before your first session is confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions
A few common questions people ask before booking their first psychology session with us.
Do I need a referral to see a psychologist?
Not necessarily. You can book a psychology consultation without one. A referral or Mental Health Care Plan from your GP is only needed if you’d like to claim a Medicare rebate.
What is a Mental Health Care Plan, and do I need one?
It’s a plan your GP prepares that gives you access to a set number of Medicare-rebated psychology sessions each calendar year. It’s optional, but worthwhile if cost is a consideration.
How does a priority appointment differ from a standard one?
Standard appointments cover most routine bookings, while priority appointments are for patients who’d like to be seen sooner and are offered when a psychologist has earlier availability.
Can I have my psychology sessions via telehealth?
Yes, a number of our psychologists offer telehealth alongside in-person consultations. Just mention your preference when you submit your booking.
