headspace Onkaparinga offers bilingual mental health support for young people
At headspace Onkaparinga, we understand that navigating mental health can look different for everyone. Many cultures have unique ways of understanding and explaining wellbeing. For example, some cultures view mental health through a medical lens, others through spiritual or religious beliefs, and for some, it’s deeply tied to a sense of community and belonging. No matter how you understand mental health, there is no right or wrong way. What’s important to remember is that if you're facing a challenging time or feeling stuck, you’re not alone – this is something many young people experience.
Recognising that language can be a barrier to accessing support, headspace Onkaparinga is proud to offer bilingual services to our culturally and linguistically diverse communities. We have workers available in Mandarin, Cantonese, Urdu, and Hindi to ensure that young people, along with their friends and families, can access our mental health services with greater ease and understanding.
Whether you're seeking help for yourself or someone you care about, our workers can assist in making sure that your cultural background and language are respected throughout the process. We also provide translated mental health resources to support individuals in learning about wellbeing in their preferred language.
At headspace Onkaparinga, we are here to support you, no matter your cultural or linguistic background. You don't have to go through tough times alone—reach out today.
