If low mood or worry has stuck around and started affecting your sleep, work or relationships, talking to someone helps. Across Tasmania, you can see a registered psychologist by video, from Hobart, Launceston and regional Tasmania. That often means a shorter wait than an in-person clinic.
If you need support now in Tasmania: call Access Mental Health on 1800 332 388, or Beyond Blue 1300 22 4636. In an emergency, call 000.
