What support can look like

“When I first reached out to UTS Counselling, I was nervous — I didn’t know if what I was feeling was ‘enough’ to ask for help. But my counsellor was kind and practical. It helped me realise that support isn’t just for crisis moments — it’s there to help you stay well too.”

OurHerd would like to acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as Australia’s First People and Traditional Custodians. We value their cultures, identities and continuing connection to country, waters, kin and community. We pay our respects to elders past, present and emerging. Storytelling plays such an important role in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture. It is a way of passing on knowledge and learning. As an organisation founded on the power of storytelling, this is something that resonates with us at batyr. There is so much we can learn and can continue to learn from our First Nations People.
