FEES & FUNDING
Our Practitioners & Fees
At Umeed, our team brings together a range of skilled mental health practitioners — each trained, supervised, and deeply committed to culturally responsive, neuroaffirming care. Our fees reflect the type of practitioner you see, making it easier to find support that fits both your needs and your budget.
All of our practitioners have completed a minimum of five years of university training.
Provisional Psychologists are in their final year of supervised practice on the path to full registration. At Umeed, all sessions and reports are supervised and signed off by our Director, Anushka — so you receive high-quality, thorough care at a more accessible price point. All reports are valid for diagnostic purposes.
Registered Psychologists have completed all formal training and supervision requirements and work with a high degree of clinical independence. They are able to provide Medicare rebates under a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP).
Psychotherapists are practitioners who work with clients on deeper psychological and relational patterns, drawing on a rich range of therapeutic approaches. Psychotherapists are not registered psychologists, so Medicare rebates do not apply — however private health insurance may cover sessions depending on your level of cover.
Counsellors bring warmth, skill, and genuine therapeutic training to their work. They are well-suited for clients seeking consistent, accessible talk-based support for life's challenges — from identity and relationships to cultural pressures and everyday wellbeing. Medicare rebates and MHCP do not apply, but private health insurance may cover sessions.
