Our teams provide assistance for people seeking support for mental health or drug and alcohol concerns.
Are you looking for Mental Health assistance or support?
If you are looking for mental health assistance or support, a good place to start is your GP. They can ensure your physical health is also taken care of and assess your potential need for a mental health care plan.
If you or someone you know needs help, the following immediate options are available:
Mental Health Line
The Mental Health Line offers professional help and advice, as well as referrals to local mental health services.
It is staffed by mental health professionals who will ask questions to determine if you, or the person you are concerned about, needs ongoing mental health care and how urgently it is needed. The staff can put you in contact with the most relevant mental health service for children, teens, adults and older people.
The Mental Health Line is available to everyone in NSW.
Call 1800 011 511. Available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Police and Ambulance
If the person is in immediate danger of hurting themselves or someone else, call 000 to receive immediate help.
