Prices and Payment
We keep our costs as low as possible by taking payment for the initial consultation online, so you're paying for our professional service, not our admin time.
Initial consultation appointments are paid for upon booking and are non-refundable. But don't worry, if you're unable to attend your booked appointment time because you're sick, or for another unavoidable reason, you can reschedule without any extra costs or fees involved.
​
We'll send you an invoice that you can pay by direct credit to our bank account, or by credit card online. NDIS funding may be used (if applicable).
Please contact us at admin@mindscope.com.au if cost is preventing you from accessing an assessment - we may be able to assist with alternative payment arrangements or a payment plan.
