About Us
We are clinical psychologists in Melbourne specialising in providing support for children, adolescents, adults and families facing difficulties with eating disorders, body image and other emotional and psychological concerns.
We offer evidence-based and best-practice treatment which, above all, values compassion and respect. Our interventions include family-based treatment, individual psychotherapy, and group support programs.
At Nourish. Nurture. Thrive. we believe in providing a safe, non-judgmental, and hopeful space which aims to support a journey beyond recovery, to wellness.
Our Approach
We are a team of highly experienced, trained, and skilled psychologists who are passionate about empowering people to feel better in their skin. We strive to provide powerful clinical interventions with a robust evidence base. However, we recognise that even the best clinical treatment will not be effective unless a genuinely caring and respectful therapeutic relationship is established. As such, we acknowledge and respond to every client as unique, with individual needs.
Our psychologists are specialised in working with children, adolescents and young adults and offer a systemic approach that aims to draw upon the strengths of family, carers, and/or significant others.
We are also committed to working collaboratively with other relevant health professionals, ensuring clients are well-supported through a care-team approach that provides continuity of care.
Nourish. Nurture. Thrive. ascribes to the philosophy of Health At Every Size (HAES), which promotes a holistic and non-judgmental view of health and well-being and celebrates body diversity and individuality. You can find out more about the HAES approach here.

However, we understand that each person is unique and we tailor our treatment to suit your individual needs.

We also work collaboratively with other health professionals to provide a holistic care team approach.

Our group program:
We offer two different group programs to provide additional support to young people and carers. Our Carer’s Support Group is for carers of young people with an eating disorder and offers opportunities to connect and share with other carers, as well as education and information about eating disorders.
Our Thrive Group is for young people experiencing an eating disorder. It is a wellness based program, with a strong focus on recovery and peer support. It is suitable for young people who feel ready to take the next steps in overcoming their difficulties in a supportive group environment.
