Adjustment Disorder Therapy

Adjustment disorder is a common mental health condition that can occur after stressful life events such as relationship breakdowns, separation or divorce, moving schools, changes at work, or other major transitions. While some stress is a normal response to change, adjustment disorder involves prolonged or intense emotional distress that interferes with daily life.

​

It can affect individuals of all ages and may lead to symptoms such as low mood, anxiety, sleep disturbances, irritability, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, or withdrawal from regular activities. These symptoms can significantly impact relationships, work, education, and overall wellbeing.

​

At Evolving Minds Counselling, our experienced team of psychologists and mental health clinicians work with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults to understand and manage the effects of adjustment difficulties. We take a personalised, evidence-based approach tailored to your needs and circumstances.

​

Our treatment plans may include:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) – to help reframe unhelpful thinking patterns

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) – to build psychological flexibility

• Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) – to strengthen relationships and improve emotional processing

These interventions are supported by clinical research and carefully tailored to each client’s developmental stage, personal history, and unique life circumstances. Learn more about the therapies we use on our Evidence-Based Therapies page.

​

We create a safe, respectful space for you to explore your emotions, build resilience, and regain a sense of stability and direction. Therapy is available both in-person in the Sutherland Shire and via online counselling across Australia.
