Compassionate Mental Health Support
Mental health support should feel easy to access, private, and free from judgment. At Smith Street Medical’s clinic in Kotara, our GPs help patients across Kotara and nearby Newcastle suburbs manage anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, grief, and other emotional challenges through structured Mental Health Care Plans.
For many people, the hardest part is knowing where to begin. Your GP can help map out the next steps, including Medicare-rebated sessions with trusted psychologists and nearby psychology clinics, as well as ongoing reviews to ensure your care continues to suit your needs. When depression symptoms are affecting daily life, this can be an important first step toward recovery without the pressure of navigating support alone.
What is a Mental Health Care Plan?
The plan gives you a practical and affordable pathway to professional support with your GP involved throughout the process.
