25.01.2022 Happy Father’s Day to all the Dad’s out there! We love Bluey! Bandit, the father in Bluey is a wonderful example of modern fatherhood, demonstrating the importance Dad’s have in their child’s upbringing by being present in activities, engaging in play and outwardly demonstrating love

24.01.2022 As of THIS Friday the number of psychology sessions that can attract a Medicare rebate increases from 10 to 20 sessions per calendar year!

We’ll keep you all updated as we receive further news

22.01.2022 Who relates to this?!?

21.01.2022 Being assertive is something that a lot of people we see struggle with. Don’t say yes to things solely because you feel like you have to. Say yes to events and people that make you feel good and serve a purpose in your life

18.01.2022 Amanda Donnett from Spilt Milk Psychology in Brisbane has put together this infographic and we think it’s pretty neat Sunday’s are a good time to practice some self care by engaging in what’s important. Self care isn’t about taking bubble baths it’s about rest and renewal so we have the resources to tackle the things we need to

16.01.2022 Some of our awesome admin team letting their hair down after a successful week one at ‘Archer on Campbell’

14.01.2022 From our physiotherapy friends at Leap Health- just some of the amazing benefits of walking (including an improvement in mental health!)

14.01.2022 Often we think we’re a lot more responsible for something that’s happening than we are. This is especially the case for those of us who experience anxiety and depression. Remember, the role we play in situations is often much smaller than we think.

13.01.2022 R U OKAY? #ruokayday2020

09.01.2022 This is a great demonstration of how activity can positively impact on mood When we’re feeling depressed it’s super important to override those feelings of low energy and a lack of motivation to do something small. Often the action of doing something leads us to a feel a sense of satisfaction and achievement which can further spur on a desire to do more, hence improve our mood Thanks Liz and Mollie for sharing this

08.01.2022 Make sure you leave yourself time for some R&R this weekend. Think about how you could change your lifestyle to incorporate optimising your eating, sleeping, and exercise. These are the three pillars that underpin mental health

08.01.2022 It’s National Psychology Week and this years theme is pain. Did you know psychologists work with persistent pain syndromes?! Important facts: Seeing a psychologist for pain doesn’t mean that the pain is all in your head!! ... You’re not alone! This year in Australia 3.37 million people are living with persistent pain. Of these 53.8% are women and 46.2% are male. Psychologists can help you manage pain by providing education and examining the thoughts, feelings and behaviours that are associated with pain. Pain is protective- it’s designed to help us avoid danger or further damage. Persistent pain occurs when these signals that were originally helpful persist. Persistent pain can get easier to manage- with a multi-disciplinary approach, pain can lessen in intensity, or significantly improve!

06.01.2022 We always try and get people who are referred to our service in for an appointment as soon as possible. As you can see however, the demand of psychological services has skyrocketed this year with services across the country developing lengthy wait lists with COVID-19, subsequent illness, financial distress and isolation being just some of the factors leading to a higher demand for mental health services. Sometimes we won’t be able to book you in for several weeks but if you ask our admin to be placed onto your clinician’s cancellation list (and you can be flexible with day/time) this will often lead to a much earlier appointment for you

05.01.2022 It’s been a ‘ruff’ year! At least it’s Friday

05.01.2022 FYI for those who haven’t seen this. Unfortunately the below has been circulated on social media today. For those of you with young children and adolescents it’s asked that you try and refrain your children from using social media until it can be taken down.

05.01.2022 Sometimes it’s hard to describe how we feel! This chart helps us break down the basic emotions into more descriptive terms. This can be useful when trying to explain to others how you’re feeling about something

04.01.2022 We have a NEW PSYCHIATRIST joining our Archer Street Health multidisciplinary team! Dr Anca Corbu will be joining us at Archer Street Health VERY soon! Stay tuned for more information... Happy Friday!

04.01.2022 Subsidised Telehealth for another 6 months! What a great decision by the Australian government! While most people are now having face to face appointments some individuals are still showing a preference for Telehealth. Individuals will now be able to elect to receive Telehealth services until the end of March

03.01.2022 We love this because it’s so true! Often we spend a lot (and I mean A LOT!) of time worrying about things that are outside of our control- like what other people think, what they do and how they act. This week, spend some time on the things that are within your control- like your behaviour, your thoughts and your actions

02.01.2022 It’s good to see there’s more research being done to back this up

02.01.2022 Did you know that what you eat can profoundly impact on your mental health?! Diet (specifically your gut microbiome), exercise and sleep underpin our mental well-being with evidence demonstrating that many chronic mental health conditions like anxiety and depression can be improved with diet. It’s because of this that we’re totally pumped to have our awesome dietitian Emilie Burgess on board! You can see Emilie using your private health, NDIS funding, or, if you have a chronic medical condition, via an enhanced primary care plan from your GP
