If you are feeling distressed by the attacks at Bondi, please know that what you are experiencing is normal and you are not alone.

Please know that support is available for you, and Lifeline has put together a helpful support guide.

Hope Counselling Service condemns antisemitism and all forms of hatred and violence. My thoughts are with the Jewish community and everyone impacted by the devastating terror attack.

Are you feeling overwhelmed following the Bondi Beach Terror Attack? You are not alone.

This traumatic event has impacted Australians from all walks of life and left many of us with unexpected and difficult emotions.

In our Bondi Beach Attack: Wellbeing support guide, you’ll find information about common reactions, reassurance that what you’re feeling is valid, and ideas for taking care of your wellbeing.

I recommend watching this mini series by Dr Jessica Taylor about victim blaming and violence against women and girls.

It’s difficult when this all you know. It’s empowering when you find new traditions.
