About

headspace Gympie is here to help young people aged 12-25 who are going through a tough time. We can help with mental health, physical health, education and employment services, and alcohol and other drug services.

headspace Gympie works closely with young people to get them the support they need to get their lives back on track. All of our services are at no cost to the young person or their family.

The headspace Gympie building has disability access throughout.

We encourage young people to not attend the centre if they have mild respiratory symptoms including, runny nose, sore throat, cough, or fever and instead phone the centre to seek mental health support.
