🌿Attuned Minds' logo is up!🌿

Here’s a little before and after of Attuned Minds' window at 26 Kay Avenue, Berri SA.

We’ve kept it clear so natural light can fill the space — because natural light really does matter! It helps lift our mood, supports focus, and creates a sense of calm and openness- not to mention that some artificial light can be overstimlating for neurodiverse folks!

Attuned Mind is co-located with .wilson so if you find Dr Wilson's building, you've found Attuned Mind ;)

Journaling can be a powerful way to support nervous-system regulation and emotional processing

When we write, we externalise what’s held inside — giving our experiences shape, language, and perspective.

Putting words to our inner world helps the right (emotional) and left (logical) hemispheres of the brain work together, allowing integration rather than overwhelm.

Through this process, we may notice:
🌿More distance from distressing thoughts or memories
🌿Greater understanding of patterns or triggers
🌿Shifts in perception or self-compassion

Different styles of journaling can serve different needs:
🌿Free writing– letting thoughts flow without censoring- just write what comes to mind in the moment.
🌿Junk journaling – combining words, images, and textures to express feelings visually and creatively.
🌿Letters– written to yourself (or younger parts of ourselves) or others as a way to process, release, or integrate experiences.

There’s no “right” way to do it — it is very much the process of journalling that provides the benefit to our mental health and wellbeing, rather than the outcome.

What you choose to do with your reflections is entirely up to you. You may wish to keep them, delete them, or even destroy them — tearing up or letting go of what you’ve written can sometimes feel deeply cathartic.

I had the opportunity to be by the ocean recently (despite the algae bloom)— it was lovely to take a little time to feel the sand under my feet, the rhythm and sounds of the waves, the sight of the sun setting, with its colours surrounding the sky.

Finding moments like this reminds me how powerful it can be to pause, breathe, and reconnect with the earth. So I thought I'd give you a gentle reminder too...

When life feels heavy, overwhelming, or you feel disconnected — step outside. Whether it’s the sea, the river, a park, your backyard, or just a deep breath by an open window — nature offers a way to ground, recharge, and come back to yourself.

Take a few minutes (5-10 is ideal) to just be with the earth, mother nature. Place your hand on a tree, bare feet on the grass or smell a flower- and just see what you notice, and notice how you feel.

🌿 Core Value: Empowerment 🌿

At Attuned Mind, empowerment is seen as a powerful and imperative aspect of the therapeutic relationship. I aim to support individuals to develop compassion and understanding for their mental health journey, while fostering strengths, resilience, and self-determination. Guidance, support, and a non-judgmental approach, supports the creation of safe space to build self confidence in an individual's ability to navigate challenges and create meaningful change.

🌿 Core Value: Curiosity 🌿

At Attuned Mind, I strive to foster curiosity—to explore new perspectives, deepen self-awareness, and cultivate compassion. Embracing curiosity gently encourages growth and support for each individual on their unique journey toward mental wellbeing.

This is my favourite value, as it reminds me every day to stay open, learning, and compassionate in both therapy and life. I believe that approaching our stories and experiences with curiosity helps us create and foster self-compassion.

🌿 Core Value: Collaboration 🌿

At Attuned Mind, transparency and collaboration guides every aspect of my practice. I aim to reduce the power imbalance that can often be felt when engaging with health services.

I believe that each individual is the expert in their own life, and this perspective is bought into the therapy space to identify, set, and guide meaningful therapeutic goals together. I believe your voice is central to your healing journey.

🌿 Core Value: Safety 🌿

At Attuned Mind, creating a safe, non-judgmental space is a priority. Healing and growth occur when trust, respect, and support are at the centre of the therapeutic relationship.

I understand that building trust takes time, and each individual’s experience of relationships shapes how they connect and feel safe. Here, I hope to create a space where you are seen, heard, and supported every step of the way.

Fidgets aren't just toys or fiddle things, they're actually really helpful tools for grounding, focus and regulation, helping the body to receive sensory input to orientate to the here and now.

And they're definitely not just for kids! Ever find yourself playing with a pen lid in a meeting? Fiddling with your jewelry, twirling your hair? These behaviours achieve the same result as a fidget- sensory input to the body! Fidgets are just a more fun and colourful way of receiving that input!

Which of these fidgets feel like the right amount of input for you?

I'm tied between the squishy blue ball and the stretchy green 'worm '.

🌿 Attuned Mind’s Core Values 🌿

Attuned Mind has four core values that guide the therapeutic practice I engage in. Over the coming posts, I’ll be sharing each of these values with you. While there are many more that could have made the list, these four represent the foundation of Attuned Mind’s approach to mental health and wellbeing.

Stay tuned to learn more about how these values shape Attuned Mind's practice and why they are so important.

🌿Welcome to Attuned Mind🌿

Every part of this space was created with trauma informed care in mind, designed to support your nervous system to regulate- especially as it can feel vulnerable to explore our mental health.

The colour scheme, seating, lighting, layout and decor were all considered to create a warm, natural and welcoming space.

Our environment plays a huge part in our nervous systems sense of safety or danger, that's why when you enter this space you have choice in what feels right for you with seating, lighting and the pace of the session. The room is adaptable for you, not the other way around.
