As we move into the Christmas period, we wanted to share our holiday closure dates - and also take a moment to acknowledge that this time of year can feel especially heavy for some.

In light of recent events, it's completely understandable if you're feeling unsettled, anxious, or emotionally impacted. Please know that whatever you're feeling is valid and you don't have to navigate it alone.

Over the holidays, gentle practices can help you stay grounded like taking breaks from the news or social media, sticking to simple routines, spending time with people who feel safe, or pausing to breathe and reconnect with your surroundings may help.

If you find yourself needing support and don't have an appointment booked, help is still available. Speaking with someone - even briefly - can make a meaningful difference.

Support services available 24/7 (Australia)
• Lifeline 13 11 14
• Beyond Blue 1300 22 46 36
• Su***de call back service 1300 659 467
• Kids Helpline (5-25yrs) 1800 55 1800
• in an emergency call 000

Remember, the holidays don't need to look a certain way. It's okay to slow down, opt out, or do what feels right for you.

We look forward to supporting you when we reopen.
Until then, please take care - and reach out if you need support. 🤍

🧠 Trauma-Informed Care & Mental Health Awareness… What’s it all about?⁠
⁠
At The Base Health, we believe that true healing happens when people feel safe, seen, and supported. That’s where Trauma-Informed Care comes in.⁠
⁠
🔹 It’s more than just therapy—it’s a way of understanding how past experiences shape mental health and ensuring that care is compassionate, empowering, and free of judgment.⁠
⁠
🔹 It means recognizing the impact of trauma without retraumatizing—whether in therapy, workplaces, or daily interactions.⁠
⁠
🔹 It’s about awareness, education, and advocacy—so we can create communities where mental health isn’t just acknowledged but truly supported.⁠
⁠
At The Base Health, we’re committed to providing integrated, collaborative care that meets people where they’re at. Because healing starts with understanding. 💙⁠
⁠
Want to learn more? Join the conversation & follow along as we share insights, stories, and practical tools for mental well-being.⁠

🗣 Your story matters. Your voice matters.⁠
⁠
At The Base Health, we believe healing happens in safe spaces where stories can be shared without fear or shame.⁠
⁠
One of our clinicians recently reflected:⁠
"When we listen to someone’s story with compassion, we help them rewrite it with empowerment."⁠
⁠
🌱 This is why we’re launching our blog—to bring you real stories, expert insights, and open conversations about healing.⁠
