Description

As a part of Vibe’ Clinical services - Vibe provides primary mental health brief intervention sessions for 12yrs and over within the mild-moderate criteria.  In this service we provide 6-8 sessions which are packages of care.  This service includes a primary mental health nurse undertaking mental health assessments, brief intervention, case allocation; complex case management and liaison with Vibe staff and external referrers/providers.  Vibe counsellors are also part of this service and provide a range of counselling therapies, including narrative, artistic, CBT and DBT.

Along with a youth development framework, the HEADSS assessment model is utilised across the Vibe service to identify health and development needs and to plan appropriate interventions in partnership with young people.
