Mental Health Friendly Doctor

When seeking help for depression or other mental health concerns, the first point of call is to talk to a General Practitioner (GP). Discussing mental health challenges can be difficult so it is important to find the right doctor that a person feels comfortable talking to. Mental health friendly GPs have skill and knowledge in mental health and help support their patients on the road to recovery.

The Black Dog Institute ‘finding a mental health friendly doctor’ is a helpful guide for individuals and people helping others in finding the right GP. Click here to download the resource.
