How we can support you

Baptist Care SA’s Family Wellbeing Service works with families to support children and young people to confidently navigate life when they may be experiencing challenges with mental health and overall wellbeing. 

We work with clients and their family’s network of care to increase knowledge and skills, focusing on building stronger social and emotional resilience. 

 

We offer

  • Therapeutic support

    For individuals, families and groups.

  • Psycho-education

    For parents and others who work with or engage with children and young people. To recognise the risk factors that may impact mental health and wellbeing.
