What we do
Welcome to headspace South West Victoria where we help young people who are going through a hard time.
headspace has been set up to help young
people aged 12-25 years and their families to deal with a wide
variety of different problems and access help via experts in a
range of areas.
headspace brings agencies together in the one
place to offer a broader range of services for young people. For
instance, if you are feeling unwell or would like to see a doctor,
a GP is available every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at our
Youth and Community Complex, or we can link you with youth-friendly
GPs in your local community.
If you are feeling down, depressed, worried or anxious we
can arrange for you to see one of our youthworkers
or counsellors. We can also give you advice and introduce you
to people who can assist you with education issues, finding work or
accommodation.
Our staff include youth workers, psychologists, counsellors,
education and employment specialists who are experienced and
passionate about working with young people.
Our programs
Our programs include general assessment when things "just don't
seem to be quite right" but you're not sure what might be worrying
you, mental health assessment and support, alcohol and other
drug counselling and support and medical consultations.
Attached below are some of our flyers and
headspace fact sheets for your general use and
information.
