Emotional Health Unit
The Mater Young Adult Health Centre Brisbane has been established due to limited services in Queensland dedicated to young adults between the ages of 16-25. The Emotional Health Unit here at Mater Young Adult Health Centre Brisbane delivers specialist mental health care to young adults which is evidence based and consumer driven. The care that is provided by our experienced mental health team is based on the individual strengths of our patients and is focused on their recovery.
The Emotional Health Unit consists of:
- Amanda Flynn Clinic - a private inpatient ward for young adults who need a stay in hospital
to get on top of things
- Recovery College - provides therapeutic programs with a focus on recovery and learning new skills for a range of different issues affecting young people’s mental health
- Consulting Suites - young adults can access treatment and therapy from a range of private mental health clinicians
