Our Psychological Strategies program provides individual and group counselling for people of all ages with or at risk of developing a mild to moderate mental illness.
The program has an upcoming group that supports you with strategies to help manage persistent pain being run in Box Hill over January and February.
Pain that continues for 3 months or more can be disabling and frustrating to manage and can also affect relationships with family, friends, and work colleagues.
This is a 4-week group program that explores persistent pain from a psychological perspective. With evidence-based strategies;
- Learn about the mechanisms of persistent pain
- Explore how to refocus on what is important to you (values)
- Build your coping strategies ‘toolbox’ for living with persistent pain
This group can be accessed on its own, or with the possibility of individual counselling under the Psychological Strategies program through EACH.
