Support that speaks your language
Finding a mental-health professional who speaks your language, and understands your journey, shouldn't take years. ACMHP is a network of registered psychologists, social workers and counsellors who were once international students and new migrants themselves. We run community talks, plain-language mental-health education, and help you navigate the Australian system to find bilingual support. Start by understanding; take it at your pace.
