How to Access Services

HOW TO REFER:

Self-Referral

Young people are encouraged to make contact with the headspace Bega service directly. Young people in Eden, Cooma and Narooma can access our centralised intake via the Bega hub.

By phone/email

Young people can call 1800 959 844 within office hours or email info@headspacebega.org.au and a worker will contact the young person to complete a referral.

Drop in

Young people can call into headspace Bega between 9am and 5pm, Monday- Friday or at one of our outreach locations between 9am and 5pm Tuesday-Thursday. Staff will endeavor to see the young person the same day or will assist them with a referral and an appointment will be made as soon as possible.

Professional Referral- Service Providers

GP’s, Allied Health Professionals, community-based agencies and educational institutions can all refer young people to headspace Bega using the Service Providers Referral Form. General Practitioners should include a mental health care plan (if appropriate) for the young person and attach this to the headspace Bega referral form.
Referral form can be found on our website headspacebega.org.au

Family Referral

Families, carers or friends can refer a young person to headspace Bega. Once receipt of referral has been confirmed, a worker will contact the young person to make an appointment. Families, parents or carers who have a young person engaged with headspace Bega can also access our centre to discuss service provision
