Psychology

At I’ve Got Your 6 Foundation (IGY6), we understand that life after service can come with its own set of challenges — adjusting to civilian life, managing stress, navigating relationships, or rebuilding a sense of purpose. Our psychology services are designed to support current and former ADF members through these transitions with care, understanding, and respect.

Our psychologists take a trauma-informed and veteran-aware approach, recognising the unique experiences that come with service life. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, PTSD, low mood, anger, grief, or simply want to strengthen your mindset, we provide the tools and guidance to help you move forward.

More than anything, our psychologists are here to help veterans find purpose in life after service — to rediscover identity, connection, and meaning beyond the uniform.

We believe in creating an environment where you can talk freely and feel genuinely understood. Our sessions are safe, confidential, and non-judgmental — delivered by professionals who listen without assumptions and focus on your goals, not your past.

You can choose the way that works best for you:

• Telehealth sessions
  Private and accessible anywhere in Australia.
  
• In-person sessions
  Offered at our Chelsea, VIC office.
  
• Flexible times
  We work around your routine, family, and service commitments.
  
  

At IGY6, we don’t take a “one-size-fits-all” approach. Our psychologists work collaboratively with you to create a plan that fits your needs, your pace, and your lifestyle. We focus on practical tools you can use in everyday life — to manage emotions, build resilience, and restore balance.

Our approach is:

• Respectful and understanding
  We recognise the strength it takes to ask for help.
  
• Comfortable and down-to-earth
  No clinical jargon, no judgement, just real conversations that make sense.
  
• Collaborative
  We can work with your DVA rehabilitation consultant, GP, or support network for continuity of care.

• Accessible nationwide
  Whether you’re in a city, regional area, or deployed location, our psychologists are just a call or click away.
  

At IGY6, our mission is to help veterans reconnect with themselves, regain confidence, and find purpose in life after service — one conversation at a time.
