Mental Health 

& Wellbeing update

What can specific health professionals do to support my child/ren and our family? 

Are you wondering what specific support networks are available for you and your child/ren? Sometimes understanding the role of a practitioner can be difficult, particularly if you aren’t sure how they may be able to support you or your child with mental health and wellbeing. 

To help take out the confusion, the website, Emerging Minds, has recorded a number of health professionals talking about what they can do to support you and your family, what you can expect in a session, and how to make the most out of your visit.

Follow the link below to access the Emerging Minds website to hear from health professionals such as speech pathologists, counsellors, social workers, paediatricians,  GP’s, occupational therapists (OT’s) and many more!
