Addressing mental health in the workplace is imperative for both employee well-being and the development and success of an organisation. Mental health presentations can range from general anxieties including presentation and performance anxieties to depression and work-related stress. Our medical team have a good foundation, understanding and management of mental health conditions seen in the primary care setting. Upon assessing patients, we can initiate and manage medication management if required along with counselling and psychotherapy.

Counselling and Psychotherapy:

Working alongside a therapist can be very beneficial to explore and address issues and problems that may be negatively impacting your physical and mental-being.
