ABOUT US

At The Social Space Psychology Clinic in Mascot, Sydney, our team of compassionate and dedicated psychologists provide a safe, nurturing environment where every child, teen, and young adult can feel supported to grow and thrive.

We specialise in evidence-based services for neurodiverse individuals, offering individual therapy, family therapy, diagnotic assessments, autism support, and anxiety therapy alongside our group programs. Our clinic was built on the vision of bridging the gap in quality mental health services, ensuring access to programs and therapies that build social-emotional confidence, resilience, and wellbeing.

We value inclusion, respect, and empowerment, and are committed to celebrating each person’s unique strengths while providing the guidance, care, and expertise needed to help them flourish in relationships, school, work, and life.

💬 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 because they had never received the right early support. Many of them missed out on early intervention, and as their environments and life demands changed, their challenges grew more complex. 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.
