Private psychology sessions
Referrals from your GP, treating psychiatrist, or other healthcare provider are essential to access this private service. QCEIDAH can offer psychological therapeutic support services to people aged 16 years and over covered by NDIS funding packages.
National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)
Mater is a registered NDIS provider of therapeutic supports. The NDIS can be confusing and it is sometimes difficult to understand funding arrangements and find services that work for you, your family and your carers. Since the beginning of the program, we have been working alongside clients to support them with their NDIS-funded allied health solutions. We will work with you to tailor a range therapies that will help build your capacity to do the important things in life.
QCEIDAH does not provide crisis mental health support. If you are seeking urgent assistance and care, please speak to your local GP who can refer you to dedicated specialist support. Lifeline Australia is also available 24/7. You can call Lifeline on 13 11 14. In the event of an emergency, please call 000.
