Adults and older teens (16+) with ADHD (diagnosed or suspected) looking for practical tools, weekly structure, and compassionate support. Not suitable if you’re in crisis or need intensive one-on-one therapy.

No pressure to speak. You’re welcome to participate quietly and take in the information. Each session includes structured content, tools, and worksheets you can work through on your own. There’s space for questions or discussion if you’d like to join in, but it’s not expected or required.

You can miss one session and stay in the program. If you miss more than one, you’ll have the option to:

• Purchase a catch-up pack, including the recording and materials for that week

• Still access all worksheets and tools

Note: Medicare and NDIS rebates generally require live attendance to be eligible for claiming.

• Standard price: $100 per session (billed weekly)

• Health Care Card / full-time concession: 50% off — $49.65/session (upload your card to register)

• Medicare rebates: Available for in-person groups (with MHTP) and online for regional/rural participants (MM4–7 + MHTP)

• NDIS (self/plan-managed): Claimable under Capacity Building – check your plan

• Private health insurance: May cover group psychology—confirm with your fund

Possibly – depending on your location and referral.

Here’s how it works:

• In-person group (coming soon):

  Yes – if you have a valid Mental Health Treatment Plan from your GP that specifies group psychology, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate.

• Online group (telehealth):

  Medicare rebates are only available for telehealth group sessions if:

  • You live in a regional or rural area (Modified Monash Model areas MM 4–7), and

  • You have a valid Mental Health Treatment Plan from your GP with group therapy specified.

  • If you’re unsure of your location classification or eligibility, feel free to get in touch and we’ll help you check.

If you’re not eligible for a Medicare rebate, you’re still welcome to join as a private paying client.

Not necessarily.

• If you’re joining as a private paying client, a referral is not required.

• If you’d like to claim a Medicare rebate, you’ll need:

  • A valid Mental Health Treatment Plan with group psychology specified

  • A referral to Stephanie Hayes Barclay – Clinical Psychologist

Yes. You don’t need a formal diagnosis to benefit from this program. Many participants are still on waitlists, navigating the cost of assessment, or just starting to explore whether ADHD might explain their experience. If you relate to the challenges described, this group was designed with you in mind.

Yes! As long as they’re keen to learn and build skills, they’re welcome. Because this is a strategy and support-based group (not therapy), friends, partners, housemates, or family members can join even if they’re not a client of Anchor Clinic.

Absolutely. Medication plays an important role, yet is rarely the full solution.

This group focuses on skills that will improve daily management of ADHD, like building routines, managing emotions, navigating relationships. ADHD friendly strategies whether you are taking medication or not.
