Question 2

Payment & Receipts

Accepted Answer

Payment is due at the time of your session.

Avaiya Integrative Clinic operates in the private pay healthcare sector. This means we do not offer direct billing to insurance companies. Instead, payment is made directly to us, and we provide you with a detailed receipt following each session that you can submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement where applicable.

Question 3

Insurance & Rebates

Accepted Answer

Coverage for psychotherapy and counselling varies by country and insurer:

• Canada: Many extended health insurance plans cover services provided by a Registered Psychotherapist (RP or RP Qualifying). We are accepted by insurers such as Sun Life, Manulife, Canada Life (Great-West Life), Blue Cross Blue Shield, Desjardins, GreenShield, and Equitable, among others.

• Australia: Some private health insurers offer rebates for counselling and psychotherapy. Medicare rebates are limited to registered psychologists under a Mental Health Treatment Plan. Psychology sessions in Australia commonly range from $220–$280 AUD per session, with a Medicare rebate of approximately $90–$140 AUD for up to 10 sessions per calendar year, leaving a remaining out-of-pocket cost of $80-$190. Psychotherapy and counselling services are typically privately paid, with fees often ranging from $140–$200 AUD per session, depending on the provider and service type.

• England: Some private insurers provide partial reimbursement for counselling and psychotherapy.

We recommend confirming coverage directly with your provider.

Question 4

Why Private Pay?

Accepted Answer

Private-pay therapy allows for greater flexibility, continuity of care, and a pace that is guided by your needs rather than external limits. It supports a collaborative therapeutic process that isn’t restricted by session caps, diagnoses, or reporting requirements.

For many clients, this creates a more spacious and personalised experience — one that can adapt as your goals, circumstances, and capacity change over time.

Question 5

Accessibility & Sliding Scale

Accepted Answer

We understand that cost can be an important consideration when seeking support. If finances are a concern, you’re welcome to raise this during your free 15-minute consultation. A limited number of sliding-scale spaces may be available and are considered on a case-by-case basis.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

You can book your free consultation or therapy sessions online through our booking system. If you’re unsure where to start, our complementary 15 minute consultation offers a low-pressure way to ask questions and see whether working together feels like the right fit.
