Mental Health & Wellbeing
As a dedicated nurse practitioner leader in the local area, we offer comprehensive mental health and wellbeing support to help individuals navigate their mental health journeys with confidence and care. Our services include thorough mental health assessments, diagnosis, and management of various mental health disorders, tailored to each individual’s unique needs
Key mental health and wellbeing services include:
• Diagnostic clarification, which involves detailed assessments to accurately identify mental health conditions, ensuring that the treatment plan is precise and effective. This process helps distinguish between different disorders or underlying issues, guiding targeted interventions.
• Mental health and wellbeing management encompasses ongoing support, medication management, and symptom monitoring to improve quality of life. We work closely with patients to develop personalised strategies, ensuring that mental health is maintained and optimised through coordinated care.
• Psychotherapy is a vital part of mental health treatment, focusing on talking therapies that foster understanding, coping skills, and behavioural change. We offer evidence based approaches using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) principles. These therapies help patients challenge negative thought patterns, develop healthier habits, and build psychological flexibility – empowering individuals to face life’s challenges more effectively.
• Lego Therapy is a fun and engaging social skills programme designed to help young patients with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) improve their communication, cooperation, and problem-solving abilities. Through structured Lego building activities children learn to work together take turns share ideas and build their confidence in a supportive and play based environment. (Ages: 6yo – 16yo)
• Metabolic monitoring for those prescribed psychotropic medications is also a critical aspect of our service. This involves regular assessments of physical health parameters – such as weight, blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol – to identify and manage potential side effects, ensuring medication safety and overall wellbeing.
• Healthy Relationships & Masculinity is based on mutual respect, effective communication, and emotional understanding, while promoting confidence, responsibility, and respect for oneself and others. We have specialised skills and knowledge in supporting young males as they navigate these concepts in today’s world, helping them to develop respectful relationships, build emotional resilience, and embrace healthy expressions of masculinity.
All services can be delivered either face-to-face or via telehealth, providing flexibility to suit your circumstances. Medicare rebates are available for eligible services, with an out-of-pocket fee applicable for all mental health and wellbeing support. Our aim is to deliver compassionate comprehensive care that supports your mental health, physical wellbeing and overall quality of life.
