🛠️ August is National Tradie Mental Health Month 🛠️
The tools you carry on site keep the job running. But what about the tools you use to handle life off site?
👷♂️ 1 in 5 tradies experience mental health struggles, yet many keep it quiet.
This month is about breaking the silence and backing each other up.
💬 3 ways to protect your headspace:
1️⃣ Talk to a mate – check in and open up
2️⃣ Take breaks – rest isn’t weakness, it’s fuel
3️⃣ Reach out – asking for help is a sign of strength
You’re tough, but you don’t have to do it alone.
Mind Up Psychology is here to support tradies who keep Australia moving.
Join us on wishing the fantastic Clare McConville a big congratulations for becoming a board approved supervisor! 🎉🎊
Clare will continue to share her wealth of experience with the team here at Mind Up and use her expertise to provide outstanding and compassionate care on your mental health journey!
Help us celebrate this amazing milestone 🎉 and, if you’d like to book a session with her, get in touch with us today on (03) 9327 2769 or visit mindup.com.au

🛫Did you know?
According to the Victorian Department of Health, 1 in 6 people experience a fear of flying, and nearly 1 in 5 frequent flyers rely on alcohol or prescription medication just to get through a flight.
If flying anxiety is holding you back from visiting loved ones, accepting that job offer, or finally taking that dream holiday - our fear of flying course is here to help!
Led by our trained psychologists, this evidence based program helps you regain confidence, learn practical coping strategies, and take back control, one step at a time.
Did you know today is PTSD Awareness Day? PTSD stands for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. It can affect anyone, and symptoms may include flashbacks, anxiety, nightmares, and emotional distress.
If you experience PTSD, you don’t have to go through it alone. Psychologists can help by providing a safe space to process trauma, develop coping strategies, and support long-term recovery.
Let’s break the stigma and raise awareness — support is available, and healing is possible.
