ABOUT US

At The Social Space Psychology Clinic in Mascot, Sydney, we provide compassionate, evidence-based and person-centred psychology services across all stages of development, with a passion and interest in working with neurodiversity. Our experienced team of psychologists pride themselves on creating a safe, inclusive environment where every person and family feels understood, respected, and empowered to thrive.

Our team supports children, adolescents, and young adults, as well as their families, offering individual and family therapy, autism and ADHD support, diagnostic assessments, and structured social and emotional skills programs to help young people build confidence, resilience, and meaningful connections.

Our clinic was founded to bridge the gap in accessible, high-quality mental health and developmental support across the lifespan, ensuring that individuals and families can access tailored services in one supportive, connected space. Through evidence-based approaches and personalised care, we help build confidence, emotional regulation, resilience, and meaningful social connections.

At The Social Space, we believe that with the right support, environment, and understanding, every individual can flourish. We are committed to celebrating strengths, fostering genuine connection, and equipping young people and their families with practical tools to navigate school, relationships, work, and life with confidence and wellbeing.

A Message from the Clinic Director
When I founded The Social Space Psychology Clinic, my vision was clear – to bridge the gap in accessible, evidence-based psychological services for neurodiverse individuals and their families across the lifespan. Over the years, I had worked with so many incredible adults who struggled with anxiety, depression, and isolation – not because they lacked potential, but due to limited resources available for them to access early intervention or tailored intervention across the lifespan. As their environments and life demands changed, their challenges grew more complex, but support was limited. I wanted to change that story.

The Social Space Psychology Clinic was created to be a place where individuals could receive support across every stage of life — from early childhood to adulthood — because needs evolve, and development doesn’t stop when school ends. Our goal is to provide a true “one-stop space” for ongoing growth, learning, and connection.

Just as importantly, I wanted to create a clinic where people could find their tribe – a community of like-minded peers who understand, connect, and celebrate each other’s differences. For many of our clients, this is the first time they’ve felt seen, accepted, and valued for who they are.

My passion lies in supporting neurodiverse individuals to recognise their unique strengths and potential. I firmly believe that with the right support, understanding, and environment, every person can flourish – socially, emotionally, and personally. At The Social Space Psychology Clinic, we don’t just treat difficulties; we nurture strengths, build confidence, and empower individuals and families to thrive together.
