LIFE-CHANGING EDUCATIONAL MENTAL HEALTH WORKSHOPS

Kickstart change with a workshop

Tired of being stuck in the same patterns? Looking for some practical skills? Perhaps a workshop or group program is just the kick start you need.

Welcome to our workshops and group sessions. From our individual work with clients, we found that they were often wishing for a road map  through the labyrinth of stress, ADHD, or parenting.  Drawing from what we know works, we designed a range of informative and practical mental health workshops and parenting workshops, with exactly that purpose in mind. Hosted at our beautiful lakeside practice in Norwest Sydney, each workshop serves as a launchpad for understanding, managing, and transforming life’s challenges.

Workshops at Mindworx Psychology are carefully crafted, designed to jump-start your journey to self-understanding. They provide a fast-paced, enriching environment where knowledge and insight is built. Psycho-educational workshops are an opportunity to collaborate with others, fostering a sense of shared growth and discovery, and tend to leave participants motivated, with a new set of strategies and deeper knowledge ready to apply in their own time.

Our workshops include:

GROUP SESSIONS

Online Groups, and In-Rooms Group Therapy sessions for teens and adults

Our group therapy sessions invite you to dive deeper into the experience of learning, offering a more gradual pace and an increased level of therapeutic support from our Psychology team. We run both online groups, and groups held onsite in our rooms, at in our spacious, friendly lakeside private practice.

While workshops offer a fantastic kickstart to learning, certain topics such as stress, anxiety, and depression treatments require a more sustained, in-depth approach. These subjects are often layered and complex, involving a journey of self-discovery that unfolds over time. This is where our group therapy sessions truly shine. Group therapy provides a safe, nurturing space to delve deeper into these subjects over several sessions. It allows for ongoing support and gradual personal development, all while fostering a sense of connection and shared understanding. With time to explore and apply new strategies each week, group therapy participants can experience meaningful progress in their mental health journey

Typically taking place weekly across eight sessions, our groups at Mindworx Psychology are designed to provide a safe space to explore your mental health challenges, and test the application of new skills week by week. Our therapy groups provide a rare opportunity to establish connections with others who understand your struggles, affirming that, while each person’s journey is unique, we are never alone in our experience.

Our team will tell you that participants often require great courage to join our groups. A courage to be vulnerable and commit to showing that to others. And, that there is a special power in group work. For that reason, we rarely have participants who regret joining. Most find group work both challenging and incredibly rewarding.

Our group work includes:

Mind your Mind (teens)

Mind Your Mind: A DBT Approach to Interpersonal Growth for Teens with Autism. This incredible course is a specially designed 10-session group therapy for teenagers with autism. We’ve drawn from the transformative power of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) with an emphasis on Interpersonal Effectiveness, all in a supportive, understanding environment.

In Mind Your Mind, teens don’t just learn – they grow, explore, and challenge themselves – together. This group provides a safe space where teens can better understand their emotions, thoughts, and behaviours while improving their social interactions. Using DBT, we provide practical, hands-on tools to enhance communication, manage emotional responses, and foster healthier relationships.

Every teen is unique, with their own strengths, challenges, and personality. Here, those individual differences are celebrated, even as we come together to share and learn. In Mind Your Mind, teens are not just part of a group – they are part of a community.
