New Vision Psychology is a registered NDIS provider. We work collaboratively with case managers and other supports to provide highly informative NDIS review letters that reflect the psychological needs of participants.

A NDIS review involves a diagnosis, treatment plan, prognosis and recommendations for funding. For existing clients, we also include their current treatment and how they have progressed.

The process involves an initial assessment (1 hour) and report writing (2 hours). An NDIS review takes a total of 3 hours.

We conduct psychological assessments for visa and immigration purposes. Our reports provide medical evidence for special considerations based on mental health grounds. They help the immigration department assess the eligibility of an individual’s visa application or appeal.

Examples of circumstances which may require these reports:

• International student who has not been able to attend classes
• Australian citizen whose spouse’s visa has been cancelled
• Travel exemptions based on mental health grounds
• Moving from a partner visa to a different visa due to domestic violence

An immigration report requires at least one 50-minute assessment.

The report costs $650 and will be ready within 5 working days.

We provide reports for educational institutions to assess students’ special considerations based on mental health grounds.

If you’ve been married for less than 2 years and want to apply for a divorce, the law requires both parties to attend counselling to discuss the possibility of reconciliation prior to applying for divorce.

Your counsellor will complete a Counselling Certificate indicating that you and your spouse have attended this session. You will need to attach this certificate to your application for divorce.

This requires a 1-hour couples’ assessment and costs $250 in total. You will receive the certificate at the end of your session.

New Vision Psychology provides a range of court reports, including pre-sentencing reports. We assist with all legal matters that require mental health assessments.

A court report costs around $1,000 – $1,200.

We understand that court reports are time-sensitive and work closely with clients to ensure their reports are delivered in time for their hearing.
