About LikeMind >
We work together with you to address your mental health needs and any other concerns you may have, as well as link you with other services you may need.
Your journey begins with a trained healthcare professional, working with you to understand your current situation and listening to your specific needs. Together we will create a coordinated care plan based on your goals and we will then connect you with the services you need.
LikeMind is funded by the NSW Ministry of Health.
We’re here for you. LikeMind was launched in Wagga Wagga to provide assistance to those seeking support in their mental health journey.

A care review involves checking-in to see how your treatment is going and providing you with any referrals to other services that may help to further support you. At this time you may work with your GP and clinician to review your progress and, along with yourself, decide if any further treatment is required.
A LikeMind clinician will discuss plans with you for ongoing self-care. They can also assist with developing strategies and techniques to manage life stressors. People receiving LikeMind supports will work with:
With a mental health care plan, the cost of the appointments with a Mental Health Clinician is fully reimbursed by Medicare. There may be a charge for telehealth services.
