ThinkGP - MHST Primary Pathway - 01/04/2026 - 31/12/2026

One in five Australians aged 16 to 85 experience a mental health disorder each year, with anxiety and depression being the most frequently reported conditions. Among young people aged 16–24, almost 39% reported experiencing a mental disorder in the past year. These figures highlight the significant and widespread impact of mental illness across all age groups, with profound consequences for individuals, families, and communities. General practitioners consistently report that mental health concerns are among the most common issues they manage in everyday practice.

Learning objectives
  1. Evaluate the aetiology and factors contributing to common mental health conditions in the Australian population
  2. Apply guidelines-directed principles to differentially diagnose common mental health conditions and identify the individual factors that influence patients' experiences of living with them
  3. Develop a multidisciplinary mental health treatment plan using a shared decision making approach, taking into consideration cultural safety, personal factors and trauma-informed care
  4. Engage patients, their carers, organisations and the community in providing ongoing support and management to improve or maintain quality of life, and empower the patient in their own care
