Client information

David and Deborah have post graduate registration as Mental Health Workers and are eligible Allied Health Providers. We provide up to 12 services a year of focussed psychological strategies for clients with complex mental health care needs. Medicare benefits are paid for some services provided by us.

People troubled by significant depression and anxiety, or other situations considered by a GP as significant mental health care issues, can be referred to us. Your GP would do a mental health care plan with you, the plan is sent to us and an appointment is then made - usually when we contact you.
