Happy National Fairy Bread Day!

This special day is dedicated to spreading kindness and love, raising vital funds for charities that support children and families in need.

As we enjoy this beloved treat, let's remember that even the smallest gestures can have a profound impact. Whether it's sharing a slice of fairy bread, making a donation, or offering a helping hand, every act of kindness counts.

Join us at The Heart & Mind Collective as we sprinkle kindness and celebrate the joy of giving back.

Happy World Children’s Day!

Today we celebrate every child and the right they have to grow up safe, loved, and supported. Every child deserves opportunities, care, and the chance to reach their full potential!

Let’s take a moment to nurture, protect, and empower the children in our lives — because the future is theirs.

Pregnancy and the first year after birth can be an amazing time — but it can also come with unexpected emotional challenges. Anxiety and depression during this period are common, real, and nothing to be ashamed of.

Symptoms can include persistent sadness, constant worry, difficulty bonding with your baby, changes in sleep or appetite, and physical tension. These feelings may appear during pregnancy or after birth, and they affect both parents and partners.

There are many causes and risk factors, including hormonal changes, stressful life events, lack of support, or a personal mental health history. The good news? Help is available, and early support can make a huge difference.

Kindness is contagious.

On World Kindness Day, let’s celebrate the power of small gestures — a smile, a compliment, or simply being there for someone.

Every act matters.

Today we remember the bravery, sacrifice, and service of those who came before us — and those who continue to serve.

May we always carry their legacy with gratitude and peace.

Meet Ashleigh, our newest registered psychologist at The Heart & Mind Collective!

I'm dedicated to providing neurodiversity-affirming and trauma-informed care. I prioritise your unique strengths and experiences, working collaboratively to support your journey. My goal isn't to 'fix' you but to help you embrace your authentic self and develop strategies to navigate your environment with confidence.

In our sessions, you'll find sensory supports, mindful breaks, and adjustments tailored to your needs. We’ll explore what works best for you and adapt as your needs evolve. There’s no judgment here, just a safe space to grow and thrive.

I take a strengths-based, solution-focused, and collaborative approach, incorporating evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), as well as relational and mindfulness-based practices.

I support adolescents (14+) and adults experiencing loneliness, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and other general life stressors.
When I'm not supporting clients, you’ll find me enjoying Pilates, reading, netball, arts and crafts, and a good coffee — often surrounded by flowers and plants!

Entering therapy can feel vulnerable, and I work to create an environment where you feel safe, seen, and heard. If you're seeking warm, compassionate, and genuine support, follow the link below to book an appointment with me:

Today we acknowledge National Stress Awareness Day — an opportunity to reflect on the impact of stress and how we can better manage it.

Practical steps like breathwork, gentle exercise, mindfulness, balanced nutrition, and rest all help regulate the nervous system and reduce the effects of stress.

Awareness is the first step — action is the next.
Small, consistent habits can support your wellbeing and help you build resilience over time.

If stress is consistently overwhelming your ability to cope, remember that support is available. Schedule an appointment today through the link - www.theheartandmindcollective.com.au/contact

Stress is your body’s natural response to pressure — but when it becomes constant, it can impact how we think, feel, and function.

Physical signs might include headaches, fatigue, or muscle tension. Emotionally, it can appear as irritability, anxiety, or sadness. Cognitively, stress can cloud our focus and make even simple tasks feel heavy.

This Stress Awareness Day is a reminder to check in with yourself and acknowledge the signs early. By recognising stress, you can begin to take small, supportive steps toward balance — whether that’s movement, rest, mindfulness, or professional support.

If these signs feel familiar, take control of your stress and schedule an appointment today by following the link - www.theheartandmindcollective.com.au/contact
