headspace Edmondson Park provides free support to young people aged betwwen12-25 years who are going through a tough time.

Our services include counselling and mental health support, physical health, sexual health and contraception, drug and alcohol issues, and education and employment services. We also run activities, events and workshops aimed at engaging the local community, raising awareness and understanding about mental health, and breaking down barriers to seeking help.
 
Why are we needed?
Research shows that 75% of mental health issues emerge before the age of 25. By treating these issues early and providing a holistic model of support, the risk of them developing into more serious problems is greatly decreased.
