Australian Institute of Healthy Minds (AIHM) – Who We Are

AIHM delivers practical, evidence-based mental health solutions through education, practice, and clinical support. Our mission is simple: make mental fitness accessible, relevant, and actionable for all ages—whether in schools, sports environments, workplaces, or the community.

1. Education

We design and deliver structured mental health and mental fitness programs that build skills, not just awareness.
Our educational services include:

  • Mental fitness curricula for youth and sports academies

  • Professional development courses for coaches, teachers, and practitioners

  • Accredited and non-accredited training programs across the Middle East and Australia

  • Online and in-person workshops tailored to the needs of schools, clubs, and organisations

Our goal is to turn psychological knowledge into practical daily habits that improve performance, wellbeing, and resilience.

2. Practice

AIHM specialises in applying mental skills in real-world settings—especially in sports and performance environments.
Our practical services include:

  • On-site mental fitness coaching for youth sport clubs

  • Performance training sessions (focus, confidence, emotional control, motivation, mindset)

  • Integrated programs that blend mental skills with physical training

  • Structured tools and activities that coaches can use directly with their athletes

This makes mental fitness a normal part of training rather than an add-on.

3. Clinical Services

Through our trusted clinical partners across the Middle East—Nafsiati (Kuwait), Irshad Centre (Jordan), StepAhead (Lebanon), and others—we provide access to licensed psychologists and mental health specialists.
Our clinical pathway includes:

  • Counselling and therapy for youth and adults

  • Assessments and tailored intervention plans

  • Parent and family consultation

  • Psychological support embedded within schools or sports institutions

This three-pillar structure ensures a full ecosystem of support: learn it, practice it, and receive professional care when needed.
