Why become a member of the Anxiety Recovery Centre Victoria (ARCVic)?
Education Seminars
ARCVic is committed to providing information to those most in need at the lowest cost possible and in some instances our seminars are free.
Donations
Many of ARCVic's services are provided free of charge and we hope to keep our services as cost free as possible.
Library
The Anxiety Recovery Centre library is located at our new offices: 292 Canterbury Road, Surrey Hills.
Recovery Programs
ARCVic provide short term, skills based group therapy programs for people with anxiety disorders.
Support Groups
Support Groups provide an opportunity for people to help one another, understand their anxiety disorder and the recovery process.
The groups provide an avenue to share their hope, motivations and their journey in a safe, supportive environment. ARCVic Member Marnie's poem The Open Door is a great expression of what we hope people bring to and take from our support groups.
A full list of all regular support group times is available below. Times and dates for each session are available through our events calendar.
