At The Bardo, we believe getting the help you need quickly can make all the difference when you’re facing a mental health or addiction crisis. Sadly, for many Australians, the cost of private rehab or mental health treatment can be a major roadblock – delaying recovery or preventing it altogether.
We believe that world-class care should be available when you need it, not when you can afford it. That’s why we’ve partnered with Release My Super, a service that helps individuals access their superannuation early to fund essential treatment for addiction, trauma, and mental health conditions.
What is Release My Super?
Release My Super is an Australian-owned organisation that specialises in helping people access their superannuation on compassionate grounds. They understand the urgency of getting into treatment and take care of the paperwork and processes involved with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) so you don’t have to.
Whether you’re seeking support for depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, eating disorders, or substance use, Release My Super makes the process as stress-free and straightforward as possible.
Why partner with Release My Super?
We’ve chosen to work with Release My Super because their values align with ours: compassion, care, and urgency. Their team knows just how overwhelming it can be to seek help, especially when you’re already in a vulnerable state. That’s why their service is built around speed, discretion, and full support from start to finish.
Here’s what makes them stand out:
1. Fast turnaround: When you need help, waiting weeks or months for approval isn’t an option. Release My Super typically processes applications within 2 weeks, compared to the 4–6 week timeframe you might expect from other providers. That means less waiting and more time for recovery.
2. Compassionate support: Their team has extensive experience supporting clients dealing with mental health struggles and addiction. They understand what you’re going through and you’re never treated like a number.
3. Fully confidential: All personal and medical information is handled securely and confidentially. You can trust that your privacy is respected every step of the way.
4. Streamlined process: From obtaining the necessary documentation to working directly with your GP and treatment provider (like us at The Bardo), Release My Super handles everything. They work with the ATO, reducing your stress and helping avoid common delays.
Using your super to fund private treatment at The Bardo
Through our partnership with Release My Super, we’ve seen how people can embrace the opportunity and get help when they need it. By accessing your superannuation early on compassionate medical grounds, you may be able to cover the costs of rehab, therapy, medication, and other related treatment expenses.
This option is particularly valuable for people who:
- Have been advised by a GP or psychiatrist that treatment is essential
- Have exhausted public health options or are facing long public waitlists
- Want access to a safe, private, and specialised recovery environment
- Are seeking immediate support for a crisis
At The Bardo, we’re here to provide the clinical expertise, holistic care, and a caring environment to support your recovery. Release My Super helps make that support financially accessible, giving you or your loved one the opportunity to begin healing sooner rather than later.
