Booking your Patient in for an Initial Free 15-minute Intake Appointment

Below you will find a link where, with your patient’s consent, you can book him or her in for a 15-minute free intake appointment.  As we are a 100% Medicare Bulk Billing service, the 15-minute free intake appointment does require that your patient has a Referral and a valid Mental Health Treatment Plan (MHTP).

Before proceeding, please do reassure your patient with the following information:

• All patient information obtained during this initial intake appointment is considered confidential* and will treated as such; this is regardless of whether or not your patient wishes to engage with Feel Good Psychology & Counseling beyond their initial 15-minute intake appointment
• There is no obligation for your patient to continue with Feel Good Psychology & Counselling following their initial intake appointment. 
• There is no penalty if your patient changes their mind about attending the initial 15-minute intake appointment.
• An initial 15-minute intake appointment does not count as one of your patients’ Medicare subsidised sessions. 

[* patients will be advised of any limitations concerning privacy & confidentiality at the time of their 15-minute appointment]

The Intake Appointment will be handled by Ms Bernadette Martin, a highly experienced psychologist. Bernadette is also the owner of and inspiration behind Feel Good Psychology & Counseling.

The purpose of the intake appointment is to meet your patient and for your patient to gauge their comfort with Feel Good Psychology & Counselling, as a Telehealth service.

Further, this free 15-minute initial intake appointment will offer Feel Good Psychology & Counseling the opportunity to gain a good understanding of your patient’s therapeutic needs and therapeutic preferences; the information gained during this 15-minute intake will lead to an increased probability of your patient being allocated to a therapist with the experience & expertise to meet their therapeutic needs & Telehealth preferences.
