Bankstown Anxiety Support Group

The Bankstown Group will not be meeting in January 2021
You must register if you wish to attend this group.  You can register by emailing supportgroups@wayahead.org.au or by phone 9339 6013.

WayAhead’s Bankstown Anxiety Support Group is run by Jill and Paula at Bankstown Library on the 1st Monday of the month from 3pm to 5pm.

Our groups are usually comprised of a small number of people who come together to share personal experiences and information in a safe, friendly and supportive environment.

All WayAhead support groups are free of charge.

When? 1st Monday of the month from 3pm to 5pm – See all upcoming meetings
Where? Upstairs at Bankstown Library, 80 Rickard Road, Bankstown

Prospective attendees are advised to check this page in the days before the group is scheduled to take place to make sure there haven’t been any changes or cancellations. Any such deviations from the information above will be announced in orange at the top of the page.

IMPORTANT – This is not a treatment group. It is a place where people who are impacted by anxiety can give and receive support related to living with and managing their anxiety. It is facilitated by trained volunteers who have a diverse range of experiences but who are not qualified health professionals. As such, this group is not suitable for people with high levels of mental distress which may be associated with psychosis, severe depression or active post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We recommend that you do not attend this group if you are experiencing high levels of distress as it is unlikely that it will able to meet your needs.

For more information, or to discuss whether this group is suitable for you, please call 02 9339 6013 or email supportgroups@wayahead.org.au.
