An update on our partnership with Vision Australia to trial a new mental health assessment and teletherapy treatment for people with vision loss.

MindSpot’s trial with Vision Australia

At MindSpot, we are committed to reducing barriers so that all Australians can access care during stressful times. We recently partnered with Vision Australia to trial a new brief assessment and teletherapy treatment for people with vision loss who were experiencing difficulties in their day-to-day life that affected their emotional wellbeing.  

Our therapists benefited from an excellent workshop provided by Vision Australia staff and consumers, which helped them better understand how to tailor treatment for people with vision loss. Participants in the trial appreciated the adapted treatment, which helped them work towards their goals, and found their therapists caring, flexible, and easy to talk to. We thank Vision Australia for this great partnership and look forward to continuing to develop our services to meet the needs of all Australians.
