Information for Healthcare Professionals

Supporting veterans and their families together.

At Mates4Mates, we provide a way forward for current and ex-serving members of the Defence Force and their families experiencing physical injuries, mental health impacts and social disconnection. 

We provide evidence-based therapies delivered by psychologists, exercise physiologists, physiotherapists, social workers and counsellors, both face-to-face through Veteran & Family Wellbeing Centres across Australia and via telehealth.

Our staff truly understand what it means to be part of the Defence community and are experienced in helping those in need overcome hurdles and navigate their recovery. 

Mates4Mates is registered with the Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) and Medicare as a recognised Allied Health Provider for psychology, exercise physiology and physiotherapy services. Mates4Mates is also part of the Bupa ADF Health Service Provider Network. 

We accept DVA Health Cards upon a GP referral, and we accept mental health care plans for family members. 

Please note, our team does not provide specialised health assessments (e.g., medico-legal, diagnostic or occupational assessments).

People can also be referred to Mates4Mates for social work services through DVA under specific instances.

While no referrals are required to make an appointment with a Mates4Mates counsellor, contact us for details on how to access counselling services.
