ARCVIC

Wednesday 29th August 

Do you or someone you love feel anxious and seem overwhelmed at times? Would you like to gain a greater understanding of anxiety and learn some helpful strategies to support yourself and others?

Learning to cope with anxiety, stress and fear, whilst a normal part of life, can be deeply challenging not only for us, the family unit but our community as a whole.

4 week group program, starts June 20

This workshop is focused on increasing understanding and coping skills.  People with hoarding can find it helpful to meet others with similar experiences & work through recovery together in a relaxed & understanding environment.

Please join us to learn more about Anxiety Disorders. 

Each seminar will provide an overview of the condition, details about the nature of the anxiety disorder and possible ways to manage the condition from professionals working in the field.  This will be followed by a personal story from an individual who lives with the anxiety related condition.  Ample opportunity for questions will also be provided.

Upcoming groups in Canterbury & Broadmeadows

6 x 1.5 hour sessions that provide information for participants about PTSD and how it effects the brain, individual treatment options when working with a therapist, identifying values and learning new skills in mindfulness and grounding techniques with the purpose of moving towards a valued and meaningful life.

ARCVic staff and volunteers will for the second year be taking part in the Great Ocean Road Walk on May 20th, 2018 to raise awareness and funds for the Anxiety Recovery Centre Victoria.

Please support us in our efforts. With anxiety being the most common mental health issue that Australians are facing today, your contribution will help us to support people living with anxiety and their carers, family and friends.

A workshop for teenagers with OCD and their carers

4 x 1.5 hour skills based sessions that provide information for both teenagers with OCD and their carers about ways they can manage OCD.  It is anticipated that both carers and teenagers with OCD will participate in separate respective groups at the same time to develop a deeper understanding of how best to manage OCD, as well as learning relevant strategies to help manage the symptoms using principles from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as well as Exposure and Response Prevention.
