Accessibility

Head to Health centres offer community-based support and advice for adults with mild to moderate mental health concerns, as well as their family, friends and carers. All services are provided free of charge. No appointment or Medicare card needed.

Approach

Head to Health is staffed by mental health nurses, social workers, occupational therapists and peer support workers. They help clients find information, treatment and support, and a path forward through the mental health system. If needed, they can also provide assessment and short- to medium-term treatment. If a client’s care requires the input of a GP, psychologist or psychiatrist, we can facilitate this via referral.
