Public Service, Mental Health Service
The Kari Centre is a secondary mental health service that provides support for moderate to severe mental health conditions that cause a significant impact on a child/young person’s (rangatahi) functioning. Our service is designed to help those who require a higher level of support than what can be provided by primary mental health services. We offer therapeutic groups for both rangatahi and parents/caregivers as well as individualised intervention when indicated.
For all non-urgent referrals accepted by Kari Centre we will offer a CHOICE appointment. The purpose of this is to get a shared understanding of the concerns experienced by a rangatahi and their whānau and to determine if we are the right service to provide support. Often, we only see rangatahi and their whānau once during which we may offer guidance and suggestions to address their concerns or assist them in accessing alternative community or online resources.
Ages
0-18 years
We do accept young people 18 years and over on the condition they are still attending secondary school.
The Kari Centre has also developed services for infants and whānau (Koanga Tupu) and a service for children of parents with a mental illness (Tu Tangata Tonu).
