Mentis Assist provides specialised mental health support for people living with a mental illness.

Mentis Assist is one of Victoria’s primary not-for-profit community managed mental health service providers supporting people with mental illness and psychiatric disabilities.

With a 35 year history in the provision of high quality mental health support in Melbourne’s South East, we have supported thousands of people as they achieve their goals.

Mentis Assist supports individuals and their families, offering a range of services including one on one in-home outreach, consulting room services at our various locations, care co-ordination, group activities, family support and a suite of training and meaningful activity options.

We assist people to recognise their values, strengths and goals, with an emphasis on improving health and wellbeing, independence, social participation and enhancing meaningful relationships with family and significant others.

Our workforce consists of highly trained professionals and peers who are well supported by the organisation to provide recovery orientated, trauma informed, person-centred, strengths-based therapeutic and clinical practices.

• Promoting a culture of hope
• Promoting autonomy and self-determination
• Collaborative partnerships and meaningful engagement
• Focus on strengths
• Holistic and personalised care
• Inclusive of family, carers, support people and significant others
• Community participation and citizenship
