EastCoast Psychology & Psychiatry
Employer Business Type
Profile Summary
The EastCoast Psychology & Psychiatry practice is a fully integrated mental health service comprising both psychologists and psychiatrists working together to optimise mental health outcomes. We are conveniently located in Bondi Junction opposite Westfield Shopping Centre and within easy access of buses and trains. All our clinicians have extensive clinical experience, and specialise in (but are not confined to) the assessment and treatment of anxiety, mood, stress and trauma-related mental health problems. Our psychiatrists provide a consultation service for general practitioners to assist them in clarifying diagnoses and treatment plans for their patients while our clinical psychologists offer a range of evidence-based treatment modalities. Our strong academic affiliations ensure that we have access to cutting-edge developments in the assessment and treatment of mental health problems.

TELEHEALTH SERVICES
The impacts of social distancing and fears of contracting COVID-19 can seriously affect our mental health. People who live alone, or in cramped conditions with many others, or have pre-existing mental health problems are particularly at risk of mental health issues. And social distancing, in some form or another, is expected to continue for several more weeks before we get on top of the problem.
Common mental health symptoms associated with physical distancing from friends and family can include:
Feelings of tension
Worry and dread
Irritability and anger
Feelings of isolation or loneliness
Restlessness
Poor concentration
Sleep problems
Chronic boredom
Low mood and pessimism
The Federal Government has sought to address these emerging issues by expanding the range of services offered by mental health professionals. This means that all Australians who are eligible to receive services under Medicare will now be able to access psychological and psychiatric services delivered via telehealth (i.e. videoconference or phone). The EastCoast Clinic will still offer face-to-face psychology services if this is your preference and you are not in one of the designated risk groups - that is, over 70 years of age, have a medical condition which makes you vulnerable to the impacts
of COVID-19, or are pregnant.
