Being kinder to yourself does not mean letting go of your standards or becoming less motivated. Sometimes, it means looking more closely at what is actually driving you.

Self-criticism can feel like motivation, but it can also leave you feeling pressured, exhausted or like you are never quite doing enough. There can be another way of moving forward that is not built around constantly being hard on yourself.

Our new blog, When Self-Criticism Feels Like Motivation: The Cost of the Inner Critic, is now live and explores this idea in more depth. Read more on our website, or get in touch with Cova Psychology if you are looking for a psychologist in Melbourne, North Melbourne or via telehealth.

A warm, comfortable room can make a difference when you are coming in to talk about things that may not always be easy to put into words.

Our therapy rooms are designed to feel calm and welcoming, with thoughtful details that create a more relaxed setting for conversations. This room is one of the spaces at Cova Psychology where appointments are held with our psychologists in Melbourne.

We have rooms in Melbourne and North Melbourne, as well as telehealth appointments, so you can choose the setting that works best for you.

Sometimes the panic has passed, but your body and mind can still feel as though something is not quite right. You might feel detached from yourself, your surroundings, or your own thoughts, which can be confusing and unsettling.

For some people, this can happen after intense anxiety or panic. Understanding what is happening can make the experience feel a little less mysterious.

Our new blog, Depersonalisation After Panic: Why Anxiety Can Make You Feel Unreal, is now live on the Cova Psychology website if you would like to read more. Cova Psychology has rooms in Melbourne and North Melbourne, as well as telehealth appointments, if you are looking for a psychologist in Melbourne.

Today we’re recognising Wear It Purple Day, a day dedicated to celebrating and supporting LGBTQIA+ young people.

Every young person deserves to feel safe, supported and proud of who they are. Creating inclusive spaces where young people can be themselves, ask for support and feel accepted can make a meaningful difference.

At Cova Psychology, we believe that mental health support should recognise and respect each person’s identity and experiences. Our psychologists work with people across Melbourne and North Melbourne, with telehealth appointments also available.

We’re proud to stand alongside LGBTQIA+ young people, families, allies and communities today and throughout the year.

A breakup can bring more than one feeling at once. You might feel relief because the relationship had become emotionally demanding, while also experiencing grief, loneliness or tenderness for what was shared.

Feeling calmer after a relationship ends does not mean you did not care. Sometimes having distance makes it easier to notice what you were carrying, what you miss, and what feels different now that the relationship has ended.

Our new blog, Avoidant Attachment After a Breakup: Why Distance Can Feel Like Relief and Grief, explores this tension in more detail and is now live on our website. If this is something you have been reflecting on, you can read more there.

Cova Psychology has psychology rooms in Melbourne and North Melbourne, as well as telehealth appointments. If you would like to explore booking an appointment with a psychologist in Melbourne, you are welcome to reach out to us.

Sometimes a reaction can feel much bigger than the moment that triggered it. A delayed reply, a change in someone’s tone or a cancelled plan can bring up feelings that seem difficult to explain.

At times, the present moment can connect with older feelings of rejection, loneliness, shame or fear. Noticing that connection can help make the intensity feel more understandable, while still leaving room to look at what is actually happening now.

Our new blog, The Vulnerable Child Mode: Why Small Moments Can Feel So Big, is live today if you’d like to read more about this. Cova Psychology offers appointments with psychologists in Melbourne and North Melbourne, as well as telehealth.

Being dismissed can stay with you, especially when you start wondering whether you were “too sensitive”, “overreacting” or simply wrong to feel the way you did.

Having your feelings questioned repeatedly can make it harder to trust your own emotional responses. Sometimes, being listened to and taken seriously matters more than having someone agree with you.

Our new blog, Emotional Invalidation: Why Not Being Believed Hurts So Much, is now live on our website if you’d like to read more. Cova Psychology offers appointments in Melbourne and North Melbourne, as well as telehealth.

When ADHD urgency meets autistic overload, emotions can feel especially intense. You might feel a strong pull to act, explain or solve something immediately, while at the same time finding it harder to think clearly, communicate or stay connected.

For some people with AuDHD, what looks like a sudden reaction may actually be the result of stress and sensory or emotional demands building over time. Noticing the build-up can offer a different way of understanding what is happening.

Cova Psychology provides psychology appointments in Melbourne and North Melbourne, as well as telehealth. If this is something you recognise in yourself, our new blog, AuDHD and Emotional Regulation: When ADHD Urgency Meets Autistic Overload, is now live on our website and explores this in more detail.

Sometimes the first step in trauma therapy is not looking back. It is helping your nervous system recognise that this moment is different from what came before.

Approaches such as EMDR resourcing focus on building a sense of steadiness and grounding before deeper trauma processing begins. At Cova Psychology, our psychologists in Melbourne and North Melbourne also offer telehealth, supporting people at a pace that feels appropriate for them.

If this resonates with you, our latest blog, EMDR Resourcing: Why Stabilisation Comes Before Trauma Processing, is now live and explores this idea in more detail.
