Dr Patricia Kent   MAPS

Medicare Psychologist Provider

Medicare Clinical Psychologist Provider

Telehealth available

I have 27 years experience in clinical psychology, neuropsychology, and clinical hypnosis. I work with adults and older adults, and I am able to provide therapy for depression, anxiety, and stress related issues. With the addition of hypnosis to therapy, such as cognitive behaviour therapy, positive results can be achieved more quickly. Clients with a Mental Health Treatment Plan are able to access a Medicare rebate for up to 10 sessions in a calendar year. Alternatively, clients can claim a rebate from their private health insurance, if applicable.



I also provide cognitive or neuropsychological assessment to assist in the diagnosis of cognitive impairment for people with head injury, stroke, and illnesses associated with dementia, as well as medico-legal assessments following accidents and injury. The results from a cognitive assessment may also assist people with applications for Disability Support Pensions and NDIS applications or reviews.
