A GP can prepare a mental health treatment plan giving access to a number of Medicare-rebated psychology sessions each calendar year. It is a practical route to support during treatment, and psychologists experienced in fertility and grief can be requested. In crisis, contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 or emergency services on 000.
