What is NewAccess?

NewAccess is a free and confidential mental health coaching program that provides six structured sessions that give practical tools to manage stress and overwhelming feelings. Progress is measured every week. It is available via phone or video call or face-to-face appointments upon enquiry. No doctor's referral or Mental Health Treatment Plan is required.

How does NewAccess help?
