RATES
My fees are aligned with standard medical aid rates. I am registered with most schemes and can claim directly on your behalf where benefits are available. Alternatively, sessions can be paid privately, and you may submit the claim to your medical aid yourself for reimbursement. Please confirm your available benefits with your scheme prior to your first session, as this remains your responsibility. If you are unsure whether I am registered with your specific scheme, you’re welcome to contact me before booking.
For those without medical aid, or who prefer to pay privately, sessions are payable at the end of each session by EFT, unless otherwise discussed.

Psychological Assessment
Fees depend on the nature and scope of the assessment, including sessions, tools used, and report preparation. A detailed quotation is provided once the referral question has been clarified.
Prescribed Minimum Benefits (PMB)
Depending on your diagnosis and medical aid plan, you may qualify for PMB, a category of mental health conditions that schemes are legally required to cover at a defined level. There are two things to consider before going this route. First, PMB funding requires a formal psychological assessment to establish a qualifying diagnosis, which means the initial session is not covered. Second, the process involves assigning a diagnostic code that becomes part of your permanent health record. Because the implications vary, it is best to discuss this with both me and your medical aid provider before proceeding.
Sliding Scale
I do offer a limited number of reduced fee spaces for individuals who would not otherwise be able to access therapy. If cost is a barrier for you, please feel free to reach out and we can discuss what may be possible.
Cancellation Policy
Cancellations or rescheduling requests need to be made in writing (via email or WhatsApp) at least 24 hours in advance. This is standard practice and helps ensure each available slot can be offered to someone else. Sessions cancelled late or not attended are charged in full. As medical aid schemes do not cover missed or late-cancelled appointments, the fee remains your responsibility to settle.
If you have questions about fees, payment, or what your medical aid covers, I am happy to talk through any of this before your first appointment.
