Mental Health Exchange
MHEX speeds up mental health support for youth, reducing delays and preventing chronic conditions.
Rapid, Personalised Mental Health Care Coordination
MHEX’s mission: Connect families to mental health services within 24 hours, facilitating rapid, personalized care and effective support coordination.
MHEX simplifies referrals with an easy-to-use online form, ensuring swift, streamlined access to essential mental health services and personalized care coordination for children and youth, all starting within 24 hours of initial contact.
Within 24 hours of your referral, a senior clinician will call to assess your needs by phone, asking clarifying questions and coordinating the initial assessment to ensure a tailored and timely approach to your mental health care.
Within one week, MHEX provides a tailored 1.5-hour mental health assessment, conducted online or in-person by a senior clinician, designed to meet your specific needs and kickstart the personalised care planning process efficiently.
After your assessment, our senior clinicians gather to discuss and create a personalized care plan tailored to your needs. This ensures you receive focused and effective support designed specifically to address your individual mental health challenges.
Within two weeks of your referral, we deliver a detailed report and a customised mental health plan designed to address your specific needs, ensuring you receive comprehensive and timely support to help manage and improve your mental health effectively.

About Us
MHEX was founded by Daniel Ionescu, a senior specialist systemic and family psychotherapy with a strong background in psychology. This innovative service was created to address the significant gaps caused by prolonged NHS wait times and clinician overloads, which risk turning the mental health challenges of children and young people into chronic conditions. Our mission is to provide timely, effective mental health care coordination to prevent these issues from escalating.
