Where do we lunch as a team?

When we’re celebrating team birthdays or work anniversaries and only have a short time for lunch, you’ll often find us on Pirie Street enjoying some of our local favourites!

: Their house-made focaccias are always a hit!
: Whether it’s a delicious burger or a fresh salad, they’ve got something for everyone.

We love supporting local businesses while taking a moment to celebrate our amazing team.

"Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing we’ll ever do." – Brené Brown

Starting therapy is an act of courage. It’s about embracing your story—every chapter, every challenge—and learning to love yourself through it all.

Vulnerability isn’t weakness; it’s strength. It’s the first step toward healing, growth, and self-compassion.

What’s one way you can show yourself love today?

Did you know? Chronic pain isn’t always a sign of tissue damage—it’s your brain being too protective.

Pain can be learned, just like Pavlov’s dog learned to salivate at the sound of a bell. The longer your nervous system produces pain, the better it gets at it. But here’s the exciting part: you can retrain your pain system!

By understanding how pain works, you can take steps to reduce unnecessary warning signals and regain control of your life. It’s not easy, but it’s possible—and Supported Minds Psychology is here to guide you every step of the way.

Learn more about the science of pain and how to tame it at Tame the Beast.

Once upon a time, chronic pain ruled the lives of 1 in 4 people, lasting more than 3 months and holding them back from the activities they loved.

But what if we told you there’s a new way to understand and manage pain?

Pain isn’t just about tissue damage—it’s your brain’s way of protecting you. Sometimes, though, it becomes too protective, creating unnecessary warning signals. The good news? You can retrain your pain system and take back control.

At Supported Minds Psychology, we’re here to help you tame the beast of chronic pain with evidence-based strategies that work. Start your journey today by visiting Tame the Beast to learn more about how pain works and how you can manage it.

Help is available. Book an appointment with us to begin your path to relief.

Life happens, and sometimes we find ourselves juggling more than we planned. Maybe you’ve said yes to too many things, and now you’re feeling the weight of it all. Sound familiar?

Here are 3 simple ways to stay calm and manage stress when your week feels overwhelming:
1. Start Your Day with Intention: Take 5 minutes in the morning to plan your day. Focus on 1-2 key priorities instead of trying to do it all.
2. Practice the 5-5-5 Rule: When stress hits, pause and take 5 deep breaths, list 5 things you’re grateful for, and spend 5 minutes doing something you enjoy.
3. Let Go of Perfection: Not everything has to be perfect. Done is better than perfect, especially when you’re busy. Be kind to yourself!

Remember, you’re doing the best you can, and that’s enough.

Fun Fact: Did you know that oxytocin, the ‘love hormone,’ is released when we connect with others?

This hormone helps reduce stress, improve mood, and even strengthen our immune system. So, the next time you share a hug, laugh with a friend, or spend time with loved ones, know that you’re boosting your mental and physical health.
Let’s make time for connection—it’s good for the soul and the body.
