NDIS cuts are hurting real people, now there’s a way to track it.

The Harm Tracker Project by is an online platform collecting firsthand stories about the harm caused by cuts, delays, or denials in NDIS support. Whether you’re a person with a disability, a carer, or a provider, you can share what’s happening anonymously and be part of a growing national record.

Your story helps build the evidence needed to push back against harmful policy shifts.

What is a family for?

A place for connection? support? understanding? comfort? love? Yet, even the closest families can face difficulties, whether it’s communication breakdowns, unresolved conflicts, or shifting dynamics.

We asked some counselling students to share what a family is for. Take a moment to reflect on their thoughts in the image below.

At AkindaCo, we understand that every family is unique. Our Family Therapy services are designed to help navigate challenges, rebuild trust, and strengthen relationships.

Reach out today to learn more about our family therapy services.

When was the last time you felt overwhelmed by feelings but couldn’t find the right words? Sometimes, words aren’t enough. But art can help us express!

Join our Art Therapy Group on Wednesday mornings in Elizabeth, where we use creative expression to release emotions and explore feelings in a small group setting.

Whether it's joy, sadness, frustration, or something in between, art doesn't need to be perfect; it's just about having a release.

Spaces available for adults, come and try.

We’re proud to share that our Family Therapy Foundations: Two-Day Intensive is now endorsed by PACFA for CPD — and it’s designed for professionals like you who are looking to integrate a systemic lens into therapeutic work.

Understand how family dynamics impact mental health presentations
Work more effectively with clients who are deeply embedded in relational stress
Gain tools for formulating beyond the individual (without overstepping scope)
Build confidence in engaging caregivers, partners, or wider systems
Integrate systemic thinking into modalities like CBT, ACT, EMDR or schema work

This isn’t about becoming a family therapist — it’s about enhancing your family-centred way of thinking.

In play therapy, every action is a way to talk to yourself.
You don't need to "do it well", you just need to "express it truthfully".
This is expression and also a kind of release.
✨ That’s the power of play — a soft, healing space for the heart.

💬 Have you ever "express emotions" in some way? Welcome to leave a message to share your feelings👇

✨Ever said something in the heat of the moment and regretted it right after?
The key to emotional self-care is learning to pause before reacting

💡 AkindaCo psychotherapist, Sophie, demonstrates an emotional self-care method inspired by DBT to help you:

1️⃣ Pause and ground yourself
2️⃣ Respond with intention, not impulse
3️⃣ Build emotional resilience over time

✨ Mastering your emotions doesn’t mean suppressing them. It means giving yourself the space to choose your response.

💬 Tell us: What helps you pause when emotions run high?
