Social media helps us stay connected, but it can also leave us feeling anxious, comparing ourselves, and stuck in the loop of FOMO.

Our latest blog, Social Media and Mental Health: Connected but Unsettled, explores both sides, and offers simple, practical ways to find a healthier balance. Thanks to our Clinical Manager Eimear for sharing her insights in this one 💙

World Infant, Child and Adolescent Mental Health Day is a reminder that mental health starts early, and support matters.

Research in Australia shows that around 1 in 7 children and adolescents experience mental health difficulties, and early support can make a meaningful difference in their development, relationships and wellbeing.

We’re here to support children and parents every step of the way through therapy and comprehensive assessments.

We know getting to appointments isn’t always easy, whether it’s finding the time, fuel prices, or the day to day demands of life.

We offer Telehealth sessions (video or phone call), giving you the option to connect with your psychologist from wherever you feel most comfortable.

Whether you’re saving time, avoiding the commute, or simply need a more flexible option, Telehealth can make getting support feel more manageable. Most of our services can be provided by Telehealth and if you’re not sure whether Telehealth is appropriate for you, chat to your psychologist at your next session or ask our lovely reception team.

Because accessing support shouldn’t feel difficult.

If you’d like to book a Telehealth session or change an upcoming in office appointment to Telehealth, feel free to give our team a call on (08) 9456 0411, we’re happy to help.

In a time where the world can feel increasingly divided, this reminder feels more important than ever.

It’s not our differences that create distance, but how we respond to them.

When we can recognise, accept and celebrate differences, we create space for connection and understanding.

Growth doesn’t always happen in easy moments. Sometimes, it’s the challenges we face that shape resilience, strength and who we become. If you’d like support navigating a difficult time, please reach out. We’re here to help.
