19.01.2022 Cognitive fusion describes the inability to separate thoughts about events from the imagined events themselves. This leads to activation in a certain part of the brain that causes us to feel anxious. Learning to question your assumptions and mental manifestations is really important in managing anxiety and negative thought processes. A way to manage these feelings is to turn a negative anxious thought process such as I can’t stop worrying about this into a positive wellnes...s promoting thought process such as Worrying doesn’t serve any greater purpose in achieving an outcome, other than upsetting me further. #mentalhealthsydney #resilience #stayingstrong #iamstrong

16.01.2022 For anyone with an eating disorder or body image related mental health condition, Summer can be an incredibly challenging time of year. With the warmer weather, we peel back the layers and start enjoying time at the beach and out in nature exercising and socialising. This coupled with the lack of routine and structure over the holiday period can lead to some tricky emotional times. With everyone also flaunting their healthy lifestyles, diets, workout plans and toned summer bodies on social media, this period can lead to increased anxiety and negative self talk. If you feel overwhelmed by the need to be Summer perfect, and you feel that it is negatively affecting your image or self esteem, please reach out to the team. #armchairpsychology #eatingdisorders #summerbodies

15.01.2022 How do you maintain a quiet space in a chatty office? What can you do when your colleagues are so chatty to the point of distracting you from what you need to get done? Instead of stipulating a particular hour during the day to keep social discussion down, Amanda Gordon recommends a general change in the culture, encouraging people to ignore distractions in several different ways.... "It [could be] acceptable for people to not respond to emails immediately they receive them. Perhaps they may close the door or put a 'do not disturb' sign up. Maybe people need to take responsibility and alert their team members that they are not available during certain hours because they need some uninterrupted time to do whatever task is at hand. "The key to a healthy working environment is that everyone is able to communicate their needs. Usually solutions such as the above can be found, and that can be without anyone feeling compelled to keep their mouths shut."

14.01.2022 Over time many couples find that their relationship changes with influences from everyday life, such as a new job, children or differing responsibilities. These changes have the potential to place a greater challenge and strain on a relationship. Disagreements will happen in all relationships, however if you feel withdrawn, angry, tense, or that the connection you previously had with a partner is fading, help is available. At Armchair Psychology, our experienced psychologist...s understand that every relationship is different. As a result, our relationship treatment program is tailored to the needs of each relationship. #relationshipadvice #relationships #relationshipgrowth

11.01.2022 This year has brought financial uncertainty to many families all over the world. But it has also taught us a lot about the value of family and friendship and how important human connection is for our emotional wellbeing. For those who may be unable to afford the extravagance and gift-giving at this time of year, you can always take it as an opportunity to give back in different ways instead. You could volunteer, or assist those less fortunate or the disadvantaged or elderly. Don't feel bad if you can't afford presents; generosity comes in many forms. Make quality time spent with loved ones the centrepiece of this holiday season. After all, it's the thought that counts. #giftgiving #givingback #easternsuburbs

09.01.2022 Memory can be inconsistent at the best of times! Ever had a chat with a friend about a shared memory and realised that you've both remembered entirely different details? As we bring memories to the surface, our stories are ever changing and consequently revised and changed over time. Memories of experiences are not precise reflections of our past but a personal perception of a situation or experience. Human minds have the innate ability and capacity to overwrite memories. H...owever those suffering PTSD are able to re-collect certain traumatic experiences years after the event took place. This is a factor in how difficult it is to treat PTSD, however with professional guidance there are a number of techniques to coping with trauma. If you feel that you may be suffering the symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder reach out and have a chat with one of our experienced psychologists. #mentalhealthsydney #resilience #stayingstrong #iamstrong

04.01.2022 Concerned about the mental health of yourself or your colleagues as a result of a toxic culture? Corporate mental health is a topic rarely discussed, but so prevalent. We spend so much of our time at work, and toxic culture or management can have a severe impact on how we think in our day to day life. Consider organising or suggesting corporate mental health workshops - you’d be surprised how much it helps, not just on general well-being of employees, but on productivity as w...ell.

01.01.2022 "Fear keeps us focused on the past or worried about the future. If we can acknowledge our fear, we can realize that right now we are okay. Right now, today, we are still alive, and our bodies are working marvelously. Our eyes can still see the beautiful sky. Our ears can still hear the voices of our loved ones." -Thich Nhat Hanh #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthtips #psychology
