For young adults

    Online Psychologist for Young Adults and University Students

    Lectures, shifts, rent, relationships and working out what comes next: early adulthood packs a lot into a few years. MeHelp connects young adults and uni students with an AHPRA-registered online psychologist by phone or video, at times that fit around class and work.

    Why online

    Support that fits around study, work and everything else.

    Timetables and casual rosters change every semester. Online sessions can be booked for an evening or a weekend, joined from a private room at home or any quiet spot, and continued through placements, holidays and moves to a new city.

    What people bring

    Common things young adults talk about.

    Study pressure

    Deadlines, exams and the feeling of falling behind.

    Moving out

    Living alone or with housemates for the first time, and money that doesn't stretch.

    Friendships and dating

    Relationships that feel confusing, and loneliness in a busy place.

    Identity

    Working out who you are, including questions about gender and sexuality.

    Study

    Study and exam stress.

    Pressure at uni can show up as poor sleep, putting things off, or panic before an exam. Talking it through with a psychologist is a chance to look at what is driving it and plan for the next assessment period. Sessions can be timed around your exam calendar, and our stress management guide is there if you'd like to read first.
