At EHC, making people feel comfortable is a priority. In fact, most people with whom we have worked, return to us to discuss and review various issues that come up throughout their lives. It is an easy atmosphere and it is rewarding to develop such mutually rewarding relationships with people. We would hope that the atmosphere here creates the same opportunities for you.

Autism Insight
The film Temple Grandin is a wonderful biopic of this remarkable woman. It is also a tribute to the persitence and strength of her mum.
To see Temple Grandin telling her story in her own words, the five part series "the woman who thinks like a cow", is well worth the 50 minutes.

The page can be accessed from the top panel on the home page or by clicking here. We hope you get benefit from the LINKS. let us know - either way!

Art and Mental Health
I have noticed that many people that pass through our centre participate in some form of artistic pursuit. Not all are artists, but an interest in artworks, membership of a local art group or gallery, or just a quiet hobby at home seems to provide a place for reflection and contemplation.
For those of you who are a little more serious and like the challenge of displaying your work,
here is a great site
listing all the art prize events across Australia. Even if you not competing and just want to check out the galleries and what they have to offer this site allows you to do that too.
