FAQs

In Parramatta, the key distinction is training and registration. Psychologists complete a minimum of six years of university education and must be registered with AHPRA (the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency), which allows them to provide Medicare-rebated sessions under a Mental Health Treatment Plan. Counsellors typically hold qualifications accredited through PACFA or ACA and are not AHPRA-registered, so their sessions are generally not covered by Medicare. Both deliver effective outcomes for Parramatta clients. Many people choose a counsellor when they want accessible, relationship-focused support without needing a GP referral first.
