Living Well Psychiatry

Living Well Psychiatry, located in Alphington, offers accessible and effective psychiatric healthcare to patients throughout Australia via its telehealth platform. The service was established to provide a rapid response to referrers and patients, aiming for minimal waiting times. They are dedicated to conducting comprehensive psychiatric assessments and developing tailored treatment plans for a wide range of psychiatric conditions, delivered conveniently to patients in their own homes.

The practice collaborates with referrers to support patient outcomes. Its secure and encrypted telehealth software facilitates assessments for individuals in both metropolitan and regional areas. Living Well Psychiatry provides detailed assessments and management plans for General Practitioners to implement with their patients. The process involves a referral from a GP, after which the patient is contacted to book a consultation.

Following the online consultation, a detailed management plan is sent to the referring doctor. Patients are advised to arrange a follow-up appointment with their GP to discuss the assessment and treatment plan. The psychiatric team includes practitioners with a variety of special interests, such as child and adolescent psychiatry for social, emotional, and behavioural issues, as well as adult conditions. The service also caters to patients under WorkCover, TAC, and DVA.
