MindSpot’s funding tender successful
MindSpot, MQ Health’s digital mental health service, secures funding to provide free, accessible mental health care for three more years.
MindSpot was one of 12 digital psychology services funded recently under the Australian Government’s Digital Mental Health Program.
MindSpot’s Executive Director Professor Nick Titov said he was delighted with outcome, announced recently by Health Minister Mark Butler.
“For more than a decade, we have been committed to making high-quality mental health care available to all Australians, regardless of where they live,” he said.
“We believe that everyone deserves access to mental health care that is simple and effective.
“This funding allows us to continue delivering trusted, clinically proven services to those seeking support.”
MindSpot provides a range of evidence-based services online or via telephone, including courses to help people living with depression, anxiety, pain, chronic conditions, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
More than 30,000 people a year access its services, and many more benefit from its online resources.
