Although our Echuca office is closed today, Bendigo is still open and thriving with lots of pretty lavender blooming out the front.

In 2019 we had 1 clinical team member in Bendigo. Now we have 10 and growing. We also have a dedicated administration team that assists people coming into our Bendigo office. A huge thank you to everyone that has accessed our Bendigo service so far over the years and a huge thank you to all that keep referring to us.

As you know, it is a passion of ours to ensure that people can get access to clinical treatment when they need it. For this reason, we keep monitoring the demands, increasing our clinical capacity and trying our best to get our name out there within the community.

❤If you would like to help us, or help someone you may know, please share our post so it can reach more and more people. Who knows, perhaps a family member or close friend of yours has been thinking about trying to get some help but wasn't sure where to start? Or perhaps they have been calling around to services and keep getting blocked with long waiting lists. We have appointments available this week! ❤

Check out our website for a bio of each clinical team member or contact us to find out more.

Feeling like you are constantly tired? Not feeling refreshed when you are waking up? Perhaps there is a level of emotional exhausted or mental fatigue that you haven’t felt before.

These feelings could be indications of lots of things including but not limited to:
- Less quality sleep or disrupted sleep
- Not enough hours of sleep
- Higher levels of stress
- Burnout or doing too much
- Lack of effective self care

Did you know that access psychological support can help with all of the above and more?

Reach out now. You are not alone

🎙️ New Matt & Dale podcast episode out now!

Sandra’s back with the crew for this one — and we’re diving into a side of the work that doesn’t get talked about enough: how we, as clinicians at Thrive, look after our own mental health.

It’s an honest chat about balance, burnout, boundaries, and the messy middle that comes with being human while helping other humans.

Catch the latest episode wherever you listen to podcasts. 🎧

A huge welcome to the team to Eliza who has joined us for the 4th year Social Work placement, the very last steps to being fully qualified.

Eliza is an honest, kind, compassionate person who enjoys helping others and providing services to a high standard. She utilises a vast array of life experiences and theory to inform her practice and we are super excited to see the variety of supports that Eliza will be assisting Thrive and our community with for her placement.

Welcome to the team Eliza.

A couple of play therapy spaces are available with Michelle next week 🙂
Michelle is an experienced early childhood educator, social worker, behaviour support practitioner and now play therapist also. What a combination ❤️
Play therapy can be a great way for young people, or those young at heart, to process, understand and share their stories. It can help to process trauma, make sense of their world and lives and help build strategies for emotional regulation even without having to talk through their experiences.

To book an appointment:

We are registered NDIS providers also 🙂

Matt is running a father/father figures & sons (10-15 yrs) workshop on November 30th for Courage & Codes🙌

Matt says: "It's a time for fathers, father figures, and sons to pause, talk, and make sense of what’s really going on beneath the surface. We’ll explore how to handle strong emotions, the role gaming and tech play in our lives, and how to build real connection...the kind that lasts beyond a screen.

You don’t need to have it all together. You just need to be willing to show up.💪"

Immediate capacity available for therapeutic supports and counselling.

We are so happy that people are already utilising our new referral links on our website. Not only can people self-refer through our website, or book appointments straight away, but services can also complete a referral form for someone on our website.

That means case managers, support coordinators, support workers and more can complete a referral within a couple of minutes and we can get in contact with the client and book appointments within days.

We also invite guest speakers from other services to attend our morning meetings and provide information about their service. This helps us to build relationships with other services and supports for our clients and potential future cross referrals. So if you own a service or are part of a business and would like to express an interest in one of our guest speaking spots in a morning meeting please reach out.
