Welcome to the Practice. Tracey understands that it can be difficult to make the decision to see a Psychologist and it is normal to feel somewhat uncertain or apprehensive about your appointment. However, please note that Tracey will work at your pace and she has great respect for you making the decision to address the struggles you may be experiencing. After seeing Tracey for the first time, clients typically comment on how comfortable, open and relaxed they were and how easy she is to talk to. If for any reason at all, you do not continue with Tracey, she will happily recommend other Psychologists for you to see.
Tracey is offering both office-based face to face and Telehealth (via Video or Phone) sessions at this time. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Parking: Parking is generally quite easy and available in the area around the OTP House.
Information about Referral. Please bring your referral and Medicare card along with you to your first appointment. Most people are referred by their General Practitioner or Psychiatrist via the Better Access to Mental Health Program. If you have a valid Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) from your Doctor, Medicare will rebate up to 10 sessions per calendar year (if eligible). Please note that there is an out-of-pocket cost for each session and you will be provided with more information about this when you schedule your first appointment.
Paying for your Session. Payment is required on the day of your appointment via EFTPOS, Credit Card, Direct Deposit or Cash. Please phone reception for more information about the fees for each session and the Medicare rebate (for those with a valid Mental Health Care Plan or CDM referral).
Parking your Car. Please allow extra time for car-parking. We have disabled access and clients are generally able to find a park near the front entrance of the OTP House.
Your first Appointment. Please arrive 10 minutes prior to your first appointment so that you can complete some paperwork and a short questionnaire prior to seeing Tracey.
Session Duration. Each appointment is approximately 50-55 minutes in duration.
