ABOUT MINDFUL RECOVERY SERVICES
EVIDENCE-BASED APPROACHES
At Mindful Recovery Services, we are passionate about providing effective, evidence-based therapy on the NSW Central Coast and beyond. Our approach is tailored to each individual's needs and goals, in order to create and support lasting change.
While our clinical team provides a range of evidence-based psychological therapies, we all specialise in DBT. DBT is considered the gold-standard treatment for borderline personality disorder, self-harming behaviours, and suicidality. Given how comprehensive DBT is, it is also highly effective for the treatment and management of many mental health challenges including but not limited to:

Personality Disorder
Anxiety & Depression
Trauma & Stress
Eating Disorders
Drug & Alcohol
Self Harm
Suicidality
Mental Health Challenges

OUR VALUES
Advocacy
We take opportunities to advocate for our clients from a micro & macro level. We recognise the positions of power we hold, & utilise that to speak up for those who have less power.
Compassion
Showing unconditional positive regard to others; seeing the 'kernel of truth' in others' experiences; & providing a compassionate place for people in pain.
Evidence-Based
The care we provide aligns with evidence-based models & is based on credible scientific research. We keenly engage in ongoing professional education & research into the latest approaches to mental health care.

Hope
We believe no person is beyond help. Everyone can grow & change if they are given the right support.
Safety
MRS is a place of safety. We place the safety of our clients & their families as the highest priority in care planning. Our risk management processes focus on individualised & humanistic approaches based in dignity.
Relationships
We believe trusting relationships are at the heart of recovery. We nurture genuine & professional relationships with our clients, families & referral partners.

OUR MISSION
Our mission is to provide the highest-quality psychological care and training to teens, adults, families and professionals, using dialectical behavioral therapy to eliminate suicide and promote exceptional lives.
