Today on Remembrance Day we pause, reflect and honour those who have served our country in wars, conflicts and peace keeping operations. We pay tribute to their bravery, service and enduring legacy.

We also acknowledge the families and communities who have supported them and those still living with the impact of service today.

At 11.00am we pause to remember them.

We understand that the mental toll of combat, the weight of emergency response or the stress of service in high-stake environments can have an impact on mental health.

The Base is a unit dedicated exclusively to first responders, defence personnel or veterans struggling with PTSD, alcohol or drug addiction and other mental health issues. The Base offers a safe and supportive environment for recovery, healing and connection. Treatment is trauma-informed and delivered in a service and military culturally aware setting.

If you are a first responder, current or past serving defence member, this is one struggle you don't need to face alone. We are here to walk the journey with you.

Do you struggle with anxiety — or know someone who does?

Feeling anxious in high-pressure situations — like meeting deadlines, taking exams, or speaking in public — is completely normal.

But for some people, anxious thoughts and feelings can appear without warning or linger long after the stress has passed. When anxiety feels constant, overwhelming, or out of proportion, it can make everyday life difficult to manage.

You’re not alone — and you don’t have to push through it on your own.

👉 If you or someone you care about is struggling with anxiety, we’re here to help.

Our Clinical Programs Coordinator Karen had the privilege of visiting the recently opened RSL Lifecare Hawkesbury Veterans and Family Hub, a powerful community space dedicated to supporting the mental health and wellbeing of former service personnel and their families.

Veterans and their families face unique challenges in their post-service lives, and it's essential we continue to provide safe, inclusive spaces where they can access help, connect with peers, and rebuild a sense of purpose.

Supporting the mental health of veterans is a long-term commitment we all share. Huge thanks to everyone at the Hawkesbury RSL Lifecare Veterans and Family Hub for the warm welcome and inspiring work.

🎙️ New Podcast Episode Alert II Understanding PTSD in First Responders, Veterans and Defence Personnel: Why Specialised Treatment Matters

In this insightful episode, host and clinical psychologist Gabrielle Sivertsen is joined by Dr Al Griskaitis, Director of Trauma Services at South Coast Private Hospital and clinical psychologist Allira Watts, Trauma Programs Coordinator at South Coast Private Hospital.

Together, they explore the profound impact of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) on first responders, veterans, and current serving defence personnel, and why specialised treatment is critical for this unique group. PTSD in these populations often involves complex identity struggles, high exposure to trauma and specific occupational stressors that require tailored therapeutic approaches.

Key highlights include:
▫️ Understanding the unique challenges and identity struggles faced by this group
▫️ Why specialised treatment programs, including EMDR and other therapies, are essential for effective recovery
▫️ The vital role of GPs in early identification and intervention
▫️ How structured hospital programs and supportive environments can significantly aid recovery

This episode is a must-listen for healthcare professionals and anyone passionate about mental health and trauma recovery.

Did you know that adults with ADHD often experience difficulties with time management, organisation and focus, even when symptoms are less obvious. Combining medication with psychoeducation can help build practical strategies to thrive every day, making it an essential part of your ADHD management toolkit.

Why psychoeducation matters:

▪️ Helps you to understand how ADHD affects behaviour, emotions, and thinking
▪️ Increases self-awareness and helps you to recognise personal triggers
▪️ You learn practical coping strategies, including time management, organisation and mindfulness
▪️ Boosts your confidence and self-esteem by viewing ADHD as a neurological condition, not a personal failure.

Our ADHD Day Program for adults provides psychoeducation to give a holistic, patient-centred approach to thrive personally and professionally.
