Nationwide virtual mental health support: at your fingertips

Utilising secure video conferencing platforms, these programs offer a flexible and accessible alternative to traditional in-person therapy, ensuring that geographical distance or personal circumstances no longer hinder access to essential mental health services.
Whether you're managing anxiety, depression, trauma, or other mental health challenges, Pine Rivers Private Hospital provides a range of evidence-based programs tailored to support your journey towards recovery.

Virtual Day programs
Group therapy, also known as day programs, enables you to access ongoing support for your mental health or addiction in a welcoming and encouraging community setting.
It’s a safe place for people to share and receive support from caring professionals, alongside other people who may be experiencing something similar to you.
Our day programs are suitable for people with a range of common mental health conditions including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, trauma, PTSD as well as addictive behaviours.
New virtual capability at Pine Rivers Private Hospital enables those who are unable to attend the day programs onsite in-person, to access the program using a secure platform from home or wherever they may be.
