Young Adult Mental Health
Deakin Private Hospital is one of the few private services in Australia that offer specialist treatment for Young Adults.
Our young adult program is catered to people 16yrs – 22yrs with mood disorders such as depression, anxiety and personality and addictions which includes drug and alcohol, gaming and gambling.
Deakin Private Hospital takes a holistic approach to therapy where we treat not only the mind by the body. The therapies include DBT, DBT, ACT as well as physical therapies.
Deakin Private Hospital also highlights the need to engage the family – parents, siblings, peers and all. By doing so, the treatment we provide is able to address communication issues within the family structure, as well as any additional issues that may be present at school, work, or in the home.

Anxiety is how our body naturally responds to stress and is the most common mental health condition in Australia.
