Time that should be spent in a productive learning environment with all students can often be taken up dealing with undiagnosed and untreated social, emotional, behavioural and mental health conditions. Schools are freque ntly faced with inadequate resources to deal with the mental health requirements of their students.
onPsych is here to assist in providing another avenue for behavioural and mental health care to students on the school ground at no cost to the school or parents.

Mental Health disorders significantly impact on a students ability to cope. Depending on the intensity of the disorder, we strongly prefer sustainable change that is seen as incremental steps towards a more positive future, rather than giant leaps in self-awareness that may quickly evaporate.

Improved social interactions, school performance and less truancy
Reduced visits to Medical Practitioners for mental health issues.
