Psychological Support

War, displacement, separation from loved ones, and rebuilding life in a new country can be emotionally exhausting. You do not have to manage everything alone, and asking for support is a sign of care for yourself and your family.

How UAANT Can Help

UAANT is a community organisation, not a clinical or crisis service. We can:

• listen and help you connect with the local Ukrainian community;
• share information about mental health and wellbeing services in Darwin;
• help you identify an appropriate official service or discuss how to ask for language assistance.

For assessment, diagnosis, counselling, or treatment, please speak with a GP or qualified mental health professional. You can also search for nearby services through the Healthdirect Service Finder.

Help in Ukrainian
