🎄✨ Holiday Wishes from the BetterSpace Team ✨🎄

Wishing our wonderful clients, referrers, and community a joyful, safe, and restful holiday season! However you’re spending it — with family, friends, a good book, or some well-earned quiet — we hope it brings moments of warmth and ease.

For some, this time of year is filled with celebration and connection. For others, it can feel heavy or complex. Wherever you land this season, we wish you steadiness, rest, and care.

From all of us at BetterSpace, thank you for being part of our community. We look forward to continuing to support you in the year ahead. 💙

🧭 Emotions Aren’t the Problem — They’re the Map

Ever wished you could switch off your feelings for a bit? You’re not broken — you’re human. But what if your emotions aren’t getting in the way… what if they’re actually trying to help and we missed the lesson on speaking emotion-ese?

Our latest blog “Emotions Aren’t Holding Us Back, They’re the Map” breaks down:
✅ Why there are no such things as “bad” emotions
✅ What feelings like anxiety, anger, sadness and joy are actually trying to tell us
✅ How to stay in the driver’s seat of your life (even when the emotional passengers get loud 🚍)

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by your feelings or wished you understood them better, this one’s for you.

ADHD brains aren’t broken — they’re just busy doing more things at once than should be humanly possible.

From creative sparks 💡 to hyperfocus 🔥 to a knack for spotting connections others miss — there’s plenty to celebrate.

Check out our new blog to learn what ADHD really looks like, why it’s often missed, and how to work with your brain instead of against it.

🧘‍♀️ Mindfulness Without the BS: Everyday Skills for Real-Life Moments 🧘‍♂️

Ever tried to “be present” only to end up thinking about what to cook for dinner, that awkward thing you said in 2014, and whether or not ducks have ears? 🦆 (They do, by the way. Hidden. Like your calm.)

Let’s be honest—mindfulness gets a lot of fluff these days. But at its core? It’s just about noticing. Pausing. Being in your life, not 17 steps ahead of it.

In our latest blog, we ditch the incense and dive into practical ways to build mindfulness into your real-life mess. Think “brain static,” small pauses, and how to stop living on mental fast-forward.

💭 Read it here: www.betterspacewellbeing.com/blog

Let’s make mindfulness something that actually makes sense—no chanting required.

🌟 We're Hiring! Join the BetterSpace Crew 🌟

Are you a psychologist with a sense of humour, a love for real talk, and a knack for helping people untangle the spaghetti mess of thoughts and feelings?

At BetterSpace Wellbeing Clinic, we do things a little differently. We blend warmth, science, and the occasional metaphor about teacups or brain tabs—and our clients love it. (So do we.)

🧠 Based in Armidale (but supporting clients across Australia via telehealth), we're looking for the right person to join our growing team.

✔ Flexible hours
✔ Supportive, no-drama workplace
✔ Clinical supervision & ongoing professional development
✔ Clients who are motivated and ready to do the work (and sometimes laugh while doing it)

We’re after someone who’s:
✨ Registered or Clinical Psychologist
✨ Passionate about ACT, CBT or evidence-based therapy
✨ Warm, collaborative, and up for a chat about brain static and boundaries
✨ Happy to work in-person

Sound like your kind of space? 💬
