about the team

What we are known for

What brings the Collective together is the care our practitioners bring to their work, along with a genuine curiosity about the people they support and an appreciation that no two people come with the same story, needs or way of seeing the world.

Across psychology, counselling, speech pathology and nutrition, each practitioner brings their own experience, interests and approach. That individuality is an important part of the Collective. Rather than expecting everyone to work in the same way, there is space for different perspectives, different areas of expertise and different ways of supporting people.

If you’re not quite sure who might be the best fit, have a read through the team profiles and see who stands out to you. You can always get in touch with the practitioner directly if you’d like to ask a few questions about how they work, who they support or whether they currently have availability.
