Reviews
"There are some excellent services offered by Relationships Australia. Unfortunately they are (most if not all) let down by poor culture, negative work ethic, zero accountability, and an endless chain of command, that means you will never speak with someone who can actually assist. Thankfully, I was only dealing with RA on a matter that assisted one of their managed products/services."
"Relationships Australia is a Provider in NSW who cares for Care Leavers/Forgotten Australians. Years ago they had a big impact on Forgotten Australians through there office Wattle Place. Over the years I have witnessed the goal posts move in that there Organisation has expanded with what I consider is less emphasis on this minor but significant group of individuals who have led incredible support for the introduction of laws for the safety of children. Unfortunately, Wattle Place in my opinion has not fought for that older generation to be considered a group who should be afforded special and specific services after having endured difficult lives. They have let many down and continue to avoid the real understanding and feelings of this historical group of individuals. In 2015 we had a great Manager who understood the trauma of these people. It just seems to focus on political issues and funding now."
"A warning to any male suffering in an abusive relationship who seeks help from the “counsellors” at RA, they are bigots who ignore their own websites advice to men for abusive relationships net alone contemporary psychological research that clearly shows males can and are victims of abuse as well. I’ve completed a degree in psychology and the advice I received blatantly ignores virtually everything we were taught (and it’s common sense). I went through their own factors of abuse with textbook examples for each one (financial, emotional, psychological etc etc), and was told I’m equally responsible even though I was able to demonstrate every pattern with endless references. Lads, don’t go near these bigots, you are guilty in their eyes just for being a male, you are not “equally” responsible for being abused just because you are a male (when I asked my “counsellor” what her advice would be if my name was jane and I was a female and my partner was a John a male, she said I was being offensive - another cue they are a bigot they deflect and project). I tested my “counsellors” knowledge of modern psychology principles, even testing their knowledge of the DSM, and they didn’t know 100 level basics. If someone finds a counsellor provider that doesn’t bring their low iq / eq unconscious bias into their sessions please share a link - I don’t trust my former classmates are able to identify and prevent any of their personal bias and bigotry from their supposed expert advice."
"Many forms of family support and programs are available and the staff are great"
"Beware of staff with agendas. Some are fantastic, others clearly have an axe to grind aand don't care about the case."
