  • Client testimonial

    • The team gave me the confidence to pursue my studies. They made me feel comfortable, with no judgment or pressure, allowing me to work at my own pace.

      Narelle, Ipswich Medicare Mental Health Centre client

  • Client story

    After receiving a referral to the Ipswich Medicare Mental Health Centre, Narelle began her journey towards recovery during a particularly challenging
    time in her life.

    Narelle’s story is also shaped by her past. Born and raised in Western Australia, she grew up in a domestic violence household, where her sister and she often stayed awake at night, ready to call for help.

    As Narelle navigated ups and downs in her mental health, she found a supportive psychiatrist in 2009 who diagnosed her with bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, and complex PTSD.

    Reflecting on her struggles over the years, Narelle shared, “Before I started seeing the team at Ipswich Medicare Mental Health Centre, I was experiencing significant mental distress, feeling overwhelmed, unable to cope, and constantly worried about myself. I faced debilitating anxiety attacks daily. It became clear
    that I needed coping strategies to manage my symptoms and navigate everyday situations.”

    The support Narelle received from the Ipswich Medicare Mental Health Centre team proved to be lifechanging. They helped her develop essential coping skills through cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and gradual exposure therapy.

    With their guidance, she accomplished a significant milestone helping her to fly to Perth on her own to visit her Nan.

    “I hadn’t seen my Nan in over 10 years. That experience was monumental for me,” Narelle said.
