NewAccess | Free Mental Health Coaching for Small Business Owners


Running a small business can be exciting and empowering. It can also involve stress and pressure coming from many directions. Without healthy coping strategies, these demands can put you at risk of developing more severe mental health challenges.

NewAccess for Small Business Owners is a guided self-help program designed to support the mental health of small business owners like you. It can help you reduce stress and overwhelm from everyday life stressors like running a small business, relationships, health or loneliness.

The program uses Low-intensity Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (LiCBT) that helps you break unhelpful thoughts by recognising the way you think, act and feel.

Free and confidential mental health coaching.

Who is this for?

Small business owners.
