The ACT Government will provide new funding to headspace Canberra to improve access and reduce wait times for early intervention mental health services.

The initial $200,000 funding will see headspace deliver ‘onespace’ sessions (solutions-based therapy) for young people aged 12‑25. Sessions are evidence-based, pragmatic and focus on young person’s current needs and concerns.
