Guided Services
SANE’s new guided service combines our range of digital and telehealth supports, tailored by you to meet your needs and preferences.
In joining this new free service, you will be connected with a dedicated support team
of mental health professionals across lived experience and mental health counselling. Together, you will create a flexible and personalised support plan to address your goals.
You can choose a mix of ongoing support that could include counselling, peer support sessions, and groups. You might like to take part in drop-in art groups, or other online social groups. You can choose what works for you and make adjustments as your needs change.
We work differently – your dedicated support team will check in with you to ensure the program is working for you, and follow up along the way.
You’ll also have access to a secure online portal, where all of your goals, appointments, booking tools, and resources will be accessible to you.
Benefits of a tailored support plan:
- improved recovery (mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing)
- increased social connectedness
- improved quality of life
- support while you wait for other mental health services
Our guided service is currently being rolled out across Australia. To check if you live within an eligible area, visit sane.org/referral, scan the QR code below, or call our friendly support team.
