Meet Lin Well

Lin is 34 and a full time carer to her 3 children including 6 month old baby Nicholas. Lin was referred to us through her Maternal Health Nurse after she expressed feelings of hopelessness at Nicholas’s 6 month check up.

Watch how we supported Lin with managing her difficult feelings.

Meet the other Well family members

Lin is part of the Well family, meet the other family members as they engage with a range of services to support them to live better lives. Meet the Well family.

We support children too

Our Child Psychologists can support both you and your child. We provide techniques and strategies to help you manage your child’s needs at home. Sometimes our Child Psychologists might identify other services that your child could benefit from, in conjunction with psychology.

Some of the children who see us need help with:

  • Concentrating, sitting still or paying attention
  • Talking and being understood by others
  • Making friends
  • Managing feelings such as anger, sadness and frustration

Whatever your child may need, we can provide services individually and/or as a holistic “wrap-around” service to support your family as a whole. Please refer to our Children, Youth and Families page for a full list of services available.
