A Provisional Psychologist has completed an accredited undergraduate psychology degree and is now in the final supervised stage of their professional training — either a postgraduate degree or a Board-approved internship (the 5+1 pathway) — as required by the Psychology Board of Australia (AHPRA).
Every session is backed by regular clinical supervision from an experienced, fully registered Board-Approved Supervisor. This ensures the quality and safety of your care — at a more accessible price point.

A Provisional Psychologist may be the right fit if:

A Registered Psychologist has completed all training and holds full AHPRA registration — they practise independently and are eligible for Medicare, WorkCover, TAC and other funding. A Provisional Psychologist is in the final supervised stage of training. Both use evidence-based approaches; the key differences are funding eligibility and the supervision requirement.
Our Provisional Psychologists are ready to help — quality care, lower fees, shorter wait times.
