On 19 December 2025, general counselling at cohealth Collingwood, Niddrie, Footscray, Fitzroy and Kensington will stop. If you use general counselling at these sites, you will need to find a new counsellor elsewhere.

General counselling includes:

  • Individual counselling
  • Relationship and family counselling

We will continue to provide:

  • Counselling at the Brimbank Mental Health and Wellbeing Local
  • Healthworks and Innerspace AOD counselling
  • Family violence counselling
  • Counselling within our Refugee Health service
  • Child and parent counselling

We know there are many clients and community members who will be affected by these two updates and will understandably have questions. This webpage will be updated with new information between now and the end of these services, as we support our community to adjust to these changes.

If your question isn’t covered in the FAQs below, or if you would like any more information, please contact our support team on (03) 9448 5570.

Come and speak to us for support finding a new counselling service, or you can call one of the providers below to find a bulk billed service.

We welcome you to provide feedback about these decisions. We value your feedback – it helps us capture what we are doing well and look at where we need to improve.

Please contact our client information team on (03 94485570) who will log your concerns and feedback with our management team. Alternatively you can provide feedback via email at experience@cohealth.org.au.
