🌿✨ National Boss’s Day ✨🌿

Last week we paused to celebrate and thank the leaders within The Talbot Centre who guide, inspire, and support our team each and every day.

Leadership, to us, isn’t about hierarchy – it’s about vision, compassion, and creating an environment where people feel empowered to grow and contribute. Our leaders embody this daily, walking alongside our team with encouragement, wisdom, and genuine care.

We are so grateful for their dedication to not only building a strong and connected workplace culture, but also driving forward our mission to reshape healthcare in Australia.

To our leaders, Thank you for the meaningful impact you make within our organisation and our community.

Happy Allied Health Professions Day! ✨🌿

This week we celebrated the incredible contribution of allied health professionals everywhere, and we’re especially grateful for the wonderful clinicians who are part of our Talbot Centre team.

This year, we’re shining a light on our dietitians and speech pathologists. Their knowledge, compassion, and dedication transform lives every single day and our team (and clients!) adore the care they bring to their work.

Swipe through to see some of the reasons we love working alongside them, straight from our team. 👉💬

To our allied health professionals: thank you for the expertise you share, the support you provide, and the hope you bring to our community. We couldn’t do what we do without you.

💜 National Carers Week | 13–19 October 💜

This week, we recognise and honour the incredible contribution of carers across Australia, especially those supporting loved ones with eating and feeding disorders.

Carers and family members play a crucial role in recovery. 🌿 They are often the ones sitting at the table through the hardest meals, offering encouragement during moments of doubt, and holding hope when their loved one feels overwhelmed.

At The Talbot Centre, we know recovery is not a journey walked alone. That’s why our approach includes wrap-around support, not only for the individual experiencing an eating or feeding disorder, but also for the carers and families who walk beside them every day.

A special shoutout to Eating Disorders Families Australia (EDFA) 💜 for the incredible work they do in this space, providing community, education, and advocacy to ensure that families and carers are supported and empowered on this journey.

To every carer: we see you, we value you, and we thank you for the meaningful role you play in helping your loved ones move towards health and hope. 💚

💚 World Mental Health Day – October 10 💚

Today, we stand with millions of people worldwide living with mental health challenges. Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians will experience a mental health condition in any given year? Yet, too often, access to care remains fragmented, inconsistent, or out of reach.

World Mental Health Day is an opportunity to reflect on the progress that has been made but also to ask: what more needs to be done?

At The Talbot Centre, we believe that systemic change is essential. True progress requires:
🌿 Integrated, people-centred healthcare
🌿 Equitable access to services, regardless of location or circumstance
🌿 Workforce development to ensure skilled, supported clinicians
🌿 An end to stigma, so every person feels safe to seek help

Mental health care should not be a privilege, it must be a reality for all. Together, as a community, we can move toward a future where every person knows their worth, feels a sense of belonging, and is supported to thrive. 🌏💚

💚 OCD Awareness Week | October 6–12 💚

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is often misunderstood or misrepresented and sometimes dismissed as being “just about cleanliness” or “liking things a certain way.” In reality, OCD is a complex and often distressing condition that can significantly impact daily life.

At The Talbot Centre, OCD is one of our areas of expertise. Our team is passionate about supporting individuals living with OCD through evidence-based, compassionate care. We walk alongside people on their recovery journey, helping them to reclaim their lives and reconnect with the things that matter most.

This week is about raising awareness, breaking down stigma, and reminding those living with OCD that effective treatment and real hope are possible. 💜

Happy International Teachers’ Day! 🍎

Today, we celebrate all teachers, whether in classrooms, clinics, universities, workplaces, or communities – who dedicate their time, energy, and passion to shaping others. Your contribution makes a lasting difference. 💜

At The Talbot Centre, we are deeply committed to workforce development. Through our training and supervision services, we walk alongside health professionals, educators, and clinicians as they continue to grow their skills and expand their impact.

We’re grateful for the feedback we’ve received from participants throughout the year, who share that our supervision and training not only enrich their professional development but also empower them to better support those in their care. 🌿

To every teacher, mentor, and guide in every industry, thank you for the meaningful role you play in helping others thrive.

💜 October 1–7 is BFRB Awareness Week 💜

BFRBs (Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviours) — such as hair pulling, skin picking, or nail biting — affect millions of people. But despite how common they are, they’re often misunderstood.

BFRBs are not “bad habits.” They’re complex, often unconscious behaviours that can bring momentary relief but also lead to shame, distress, or physical harm. Many people living with BFRBs feel isolated, misunderstood, or told they should “just stop” — which we know is far from simple.

At The Talbot Centre, we want to change that. This week is about breaking down stigma, raising awareness, and reminding those experiencing BFRBs that they are not alone; help and hope are available.

✨ We’re also excited to share that after many requests, we will soon be releasing dates for our NEW training to equip clinicians with the tools and understanding needed to better recognise and support individuals living with BFRBs.

Together, we can create a future where people feel seen, supported, and empowered on their journey of recovery.

📣 Stay tuned for more details on the training release.

October is ADHD Awareness Month – a time to open conversations, reduce stigma, and support ADHDers of all ages.

Over the years, we’ve walked alongside children, teens, and adults who’ve said things like:
💭 “I thought I was just lazy.”
💭 “I’ve always felt different, but I didn’t know why.”
💭 “Getting clarity changed how I see myself.”

Stories like these remind us why understanding ADHD matters. An assessment isn’t about putting a label on someone, it’s about opening doors to self-acceptance, to compassion, and to practical supports that make life feel lighter.

That’s why we’ve launched our ADHD Assessment Clinic. When you come to us, you won’t just get a checklist and a report. You’ll get:
✨ A team that takes the time to understand your story
✨ Assessments that highlight strengths as well as challenges
✨ Recommendations that are clear, realistic, and tailored to you and your family

We’re now welcoming Expressions of Interest:
🌱 Adults – will be opening bookings from October
🌱 Children – bookings available from November/December

If you’ve been wondering whether an ADHD assessment could help you or your child, know that you don’t have to walk that path alone. We’re here to listen, to understand, and to support you in moving forward with confidence. 💙

🔗 Submit your EOI through the link in our bio or reach out to our team today.

Together, we can create a community where every person’s strengths are recognised and nurtured.

Because building a strong workplace culture isn’t just about the work we do – it’s about connection, laughter, and the small moments we share along the way. 🌿
