1 Mindhealthconnect 1 What is Mindhealthconnect? Mindhealthconnect is Australia s first national e-mental health online portal. It was launched in July 2012 as part of the Australian Government s National E-Mental Health Strategy. 2 The Mindhealthconnect online portal is designed to provide a trustworthy source of information, support and a gateway to therapy for people seeking help for mental illness. The portal allows people to access information and treatment as an alternative to traditional face-to-face services in their own time, in an environment they feel comfortable. E-mental health services will play an increasingly significant role in mental health care in Australia. Over time the e-mental health system will become closely integrated with wider health services, including the Personally Controlled Electronic Health Records (ehealth system). 3 What are the benefits of Mindhealthconnect? The online delivery for Mindhealth connect makes it ideal for people who live in areas with limited services, have difficulty with transport or are reluctant to use face-to-face mental health services for reasons of stigma or preference. How can Mindhealthconnect assist me? Mindhealthconnect can assist you if you experience mild to moderate symptoms of mental illness, particularly if you are experiencing stress, anxiety or depression. Mindhealthconnect is designed to complement, rather than replace, established mental health services. You should continue to receive support through your treating health service providers. If you use Mindhealthconnect and you are identified as requiring a high level of support, you will be directed to appropriate face-to-face services. Who are the current Mindhealthconnect partners? 4 Mindhealthconnect partners with leading providers for mental health information, programs and services in Australia. Mindhealthconnect partners include: 1 Information in this section taken from 2 A copy of the Australian Government s National E-Mental Health Strategy can be found online at 3 See the Section on Personally Controlled Electronic Health Records for more information on page < >. 4 Information on partners taken from the Mindhealthconnect website on
