Terms Of Use.
Courses
All transactions with The Inner Collective are subject to the following terms and conditions. The person responsible for the booking as indicated in these terms and conditions is the person who is named on the booking confirmation form. It is their responsibility to read all terms and conditions of their booking.
The price for each course is displayed on the website and must be paid in full, by debit or credit card at time of booking in order to confirm registration. Payment plans are available and can be organised and agreed with The Inner Collective on a case by case basis.
Your booking will be confirmed after registration by e-mail.
Tickets for courses are non-refundable and non-redeemable. Exceptional circumstances (emergencies, etc) will be treated on a case-by- case basis.
We cannot accept responsibility for any changes in personal circumstances or work commitment. We reserve the right to cancel or change course dates if necessary, at any time. In the event of cancellation, all customers will be notified. If a customer is not available for the new date, they will be refunded the ticket in full and offered a choice of alternative dates / events.
Psychological Services
As part of providing our psychological service to you it is necessary to collect and record personal information. The information gathered is part of our assessment, diagnosis and treatment. It enables your psychologist to provide a relevant and informed psychological service.
Confidentiality
All personal information gathered by the psychologist during the provision of the psychological service will remain confidential and secure except where:
-
It is subpoenaed by a court.
-
Failure to disclose the information would place you or another person at serious and imminent risk.
There may be times where, as part of the assessment and therapy process, it may be helpful for your psychologist to liaise with other people or agencies that are relevant to your goals. Additional consent forms will be requested in these instances.
Please note that if you intend to claim rebates from Medicare or another organisation, your psychologist must provide summary reports to external agencies regarding their treatment progress. Under the Medicare scheme these reports are typically be sent to your GP and/or psychiatrist. We will request your written consent to permit the forwarding of these Medicare reports to the referring clinician.
Fees
The cost of therapy sessions will be discussed and set out before treatment commences. Fees are payable at the end of the session. Payment can be made by Eftpos or online payment.
Cancellation Policy
If for some reason you need to cancel or postpone your appointment, at least 48 hours notice is required. A cancellation fee of 50% will be charged if insufficient notice is given (i.e. notice within 48 hours). All cancellations must be made via phone or e-mail. If you fail to attend an appointment, with no notice of cancellation, the cancellation fee will apply.
If a cancellation was made due to unavoidable circumstances, then we will try our best to reschedule the appointment but it will be at the discretion of The Inner Collective to determine whether cancellation fees apply. If numerous consecutive cancellations are made, then it is also at our discretion to charge a non-refundable deposit for future sessions.
Conditions of Cancellation Policy
If a cancellation fee has been charged, it must be paid prior to the provision of any further services. These cancellation fees apply to all clients of The Inner Collective, even those whose services are paid for by another organisation (Medicare, Private Health funds, etc). The cancellation fee will need to be paid personally by the client as third party organisations do not typically cover cancellation fees for nonattendance at scheduled appointments.
Tardiness
Sessions are strictly one hour and will not be extended past the hour due to late arrivals. Full fees apply in circumstances of late arrival.
This policy is effective as of 24 January 2019
