Psychs in Schools is transforming the way schools approach mental health by placing expert psychological support directly within schools. Our innovative co-therapy model pairs senior psychologists with practicum students, delivering high-quality, evidence-based therapy that achieves real results. With a strong focus on collaboration, we also equip educators with the tools and training they need to support student wellbeing every day.

In the past three years, we’ve supported over 1,000 students, achieving a remarkable 3% drop-out rate—far below the international average of 26%. By embedding mental health care in schools, we’re helping students, educators, and communities thrive together.
