Are you suffering from depression, anxiety or feelings of stress?  

Do you need support to work through a life transition or crisis? 

Accredited Mental Health Social Workers (AMHSW) are highly specialised social workers who focus solely on mental health concerns and diagnoses. 

They work from a holistic framework to empower you to help heal yourself. 

Mental Health Social Workers consider a person’s psycho-social environment and are well versed in government support systems and programs. 

They encourage a therapeutic relationship based on collaboration and partnership rather than an expert-patient relationship. 

You will be actively involved and thoroughly supported through a bio-psychosocial, integrated approach to enhance your wellbeing, and identify and address issues that impact your mental health or create inequality, injustice or discrimination.
