Head to Health

Head to Health has been developed to support the mental health of people in NSW, of all ages. If your mental health is suffering, now is the time to reach out, even if you’ve never felt like this or asked for help before.

Call 1800 595 212

Take the first steps towards finding mental health and wellbeing support that is best for you. The sooner you talk about your mental health, the sooner you’ll get the help and support you need, to help you move forward and feel stronger.

A trained professional will take your call, give you advice, and if you need it connect you to the best support or service for you.

You can call 1800 595 212  Monday to Friday, 8.30am-5:00pm (except public holidays).

This is not a crisis service. If you need immediate help or are at risk of harm to yourself or others call 000 now.

Head to Health has been designed to provide mental health support to those in need during the extended lockdown in NSW, where mental health trained professionals will assist individuals in accessing appropriate care.
