Join Psychology for a Safe Climate

Become a member

Please support PSC’s ongoing work, and join us by becoming a member. 

PSC supports people to face the reality of the climate crisis. We help build people’s capacity to respond constructively to this crisis by promoting and strengthening mental health and well being. We engage with those working on climate change, the caring professions and the broader community.

From January 2024, new PSC Members will join our brand new PSC Community Hub.

We have created this new, online space as a resource for PSC members to find like-minded peers all over Australia. Our goal is for the PSC Community Hub to provide opportunities for members to connect, converse, share ideas, perhaps even collaborate with another member on a project, and learn about what’s happening in Australia and beyond, at the crucial intersection of climate change and mental health.

The PSC Community Hub is also a space where members can explore resources, take part in peer-to-peer support groups and engage in community events, discussions and forums.

If you are a current PSC member, you’ll receive an invitation with a link to join the new Community Hub very soon. In the meantime please email us if you have any questions. 

Membership can be paid monthly or annually. After becoming a member, your membership fee will be automatically deducted at the interval you select.

Climate Aware Practitioners

All PSC members can enjoy the benefits of our new Community Hub. In addition, eligible members have the option to apply to become a Climate Aware Practitioner (CAP) and join PSC’s CAP Network.

Once CAP membership has been approved, CAPs can have their profile added to our Climate Aware Practitioner Directory.

CAPS are listed in one or more of the following categories:

  • Mental Health
  • Practitioner
  • General Practitioner
  • Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Mental Health Worker
  • Workshop Facilitator

To be listed in the Directory, CAPs must complete a Practitioner Profile so that anyone using the Directory to find a practitioner or facilitator, can select the CAP that can best support them.

CAP members have the ability to lists events they are running in the PSC Community Hub where it will be visible to all PSC members. Additionally, CAP members can submit a form to PSC administration, requesting a listing for their event on the Events page on the PSC website, where it can be seen by the general public looking to find out about climate and/or health-related group workshops and seminars.

To find out more about becoming a CAP, including the CAP Professional Development program, please see the CAP page.

Climate Aware Practitioners also have the option to undertake further Professional Development to become a facilitator of PSC’s suite of Climate Distress Workshops.
