What's Here?
My goal as a counselling psychologist is to assist you in reducing your suffering, but more importantly, to support you in attaining a life that you love to live. To find out more about my approach to counselling, click here.

I am about to change the site. Soon this website will be re-named "Act Of Living"
and will have a new domain, actofliving.com.au, and julianmcnally.com
will go into hibernation before becoming a more conventional blog. My
psychological practice will be hosted at actofliving.com.au.
ACT for Anxiety If you attended the Introductory ACT workshop I conducted for the APS College of Counselling Psychologists on July 25th, you can obtain more copies of the handouts and a hard copy of the presentation by following this link.

For reasons that are boring and unnecessary to go into here, my practice phone number is changing. The current number will expire on December 6, 2008. The new number is "live" today (November 12), but for obvious reasons I am not publicising the number online. However, if you receive an email or SMS from me, or if you listen to the voicemail greeting on the old number, the new number will be provided. Please use that number from now on.
ACT exercises to download
I've uploaded a couple of versions of an Acceptance & Commitment Therapy exercise I call Thoughts On The Highway. You can download the audio files and find out more under Psychological Services.
Medicare Rebates for Psychological Services
From November 1st 2006, you will be able to claim a rebate through Medicare for services from a registered psychologist. You do need to have a referral from your GP, and only certain mental health conditions and specified treatments are eligible for the rebates. I recommend you read the fact sheet from the Australian Psychological Society first. If you are making an appointment with me and wish to claim the rebate, please bring your GP referral with you.
There's also usually some new and useful information on my blog - feel free to comment on the postings in there.
What's Free?
Try the mindfulness exercises I developed in my old job at RMIT University. Mindfulness exercises such as these are an essential component of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, so if you're interested in this approach, consider these a 'taster'. Make sure you read the disclaimer though. |
