Our thoughts are with every person and community impacted by the terrible attack at Bondi yesterday 🧡

In the aftermath of traumatic events, you might be feeling distressed, tearful and anxious, this is entirely normal and could linger for many days or even weeks.

Trauma can have far-reaching effects on the mind and body. It can cause people to have difficulty sleeping or to feel very anxious, especially about returning to the scene of a trauma.

It can be hard to know what to do or how to help others who may need it. Below you will find some practical ways to take care of yourself after a traumatic event has occurred 👇

When you’re stuck and feeling unmotivated, try connecting to what’s most important to you and remind yourself why the action is right for you.

Over the last 25 years this practice has worked exclusively with children and adolescents and their caregivers. As a result of our experience in this area, we also now offer a specific subset of adult therapy work - brief (6 session) therapy for parents/caregivers who are experiencing parental stress and distress designed to reduce anxiety, overwhelm, sadness, frustration and grief associated specifically with parenting.

During these sessions, our psychologists will aim to support you and hear your concerns, and to support you to find strategies to practice self-compassion, problem solve practical issues to respond to your child/teen, and find strategies to cope with distress.

Telehealth options are available for those in remote areas or where time constraints are an issue. Please note, we do not provide therapy to adults which is aimed at treating broader mental health issues (eg therapy for depression, post-traumatic stress, relationship difficulties and so on). It is important you let us know if you believe you need support for these issues so we can refer you to other services. We will also let you know if we believe these supports/services might be appropriate for you.
