The Official Unified Directory of Mental-Health Providers in Lagos State
A Lagos State Ministry of Health Initiative
Designed to strengthen access, trust, visibility, and collaboration in mental-health care.
Every day, across Lagos and far beyond its borders, individuals and organizations provide counselling, treatment, support, advocacy, innovation, and compassion that quietly hold our communities together.
Until now, Lagos has never had a central, verified, and inclusive platform that brings this entire ecosystem into one place. Today, the Lagos State Ministry of Health has created one.
A first-of-its-kind unified, Ministry-led mental-health directory that maps every category of provider i.e. clinical, non-clinical, organizational, and diaspora.
This directory is aligned with the Lagos State Mental Health Law (2018), the THEMES+ Agenda, Mental-Health System Strengthening Programmes, Public Health & PHC Reform Strategy.
