It can take a lot of courage & vulnerability for someone to see a psychologist. On the one hand people often know they need or should see a psych. Yet on the other hand there are often misconceptions about what seeing a psych is like, difficulty in knowing how to find a psych, not a lot of information on the ways to make it more affordable, & the myth that you only see a psych when things aren't great.

In my most recent podcast with we explore all things about finding & seeing a psychologist.

Among other things we discuss:
🔸referral options in Australia, & options to make therapy more affordable
🔸how to find the right psychologist for you
🔸the difference between psychiatrists, psychologists, & counsellors
🔸what to expect in sessions
🔸why the "click" or "fit" with your psychologist is so important
🔸clarifying the whole psychologist sofa/couch mystery you see in movies 😋

Great to be back again on , talking all things anxiety & panic attacks. I cover what anxiety is, why we don't want to get rid of anxiety completely, things to keep an eye out for that might suggest anxiety isn't doing its functional job, strategies to help, & also how to support someone else who is experiencing anxiety.

I recently chatted with Tegan & Alex from . While focused on helping people in how they relate to their bodies, nutrition, & movement, the podcast also aims to illustrate how these aspects may have been influenced by those closest to us, & in turn how we can change & model our health to positively influence the next generation.

We dove deep into the common mindset blocks around exercise, discussed how our early observations & experiences of movement can really set the tone for our relationship with exercise as an adult, & practical takeaways to help those who know it is their mind that gets in the way of their movement.

Thank you & for the opportunity to talk all things exercise psychology ☺️
