Beyond Blue

About

Beyond Blue is an independent, not-for-profit organisation working to reduce the impact of anxiety, depression and suicide in Australia. Mental health conditions don’t discriminate, and neither do we. We provide information and support to help everyone achieve their best possible mental health, whatever their age and wherever they live.

Beyond Blue celebrates the strength, resilience and diversity of LGBTI communities and we are proud to celebrate diversity and stand up for equality in our community. We continue to advocate for non-discriminating communities, systems, policies and institutions, because we know discrimination can lead to mental health conditions and suicide. You can find information and resources for LGBTI people here: beyondblue.org.au/lgbti

With three million people experiencing anxiety and/or depression in any given year, our Support Services provide help to people when they need it most, providing free advice and short-term counselling from trained mental health professionals.
