About Mend Melbourne

Mend Melbourne is an online and in-person counselling and psychotherapy service grounded in evidence-based, trauma-informed care. With sessions available both virtually and at our office in Upper Ferntree Gully, we support individuals across Melbourne and beyond.

​

We specialise in working with adults impacted by complex trauma, anxiety, childhood sexual abuse, family violence, neglect, dissociation, addiction, and low self-esteem. Our focus includes psychoeducation around mindfulness, nervous system regulation, emotional awareness, and strategies to manage distressing thought patterns and behaviours.

​

Founded by a highly trained and experienced trauma counsellor, Mend Melbourne offers counselling for trauma survivors, anxiety therapy, and support for those recovering from difficult childhoods. We also welcome NDIS participants, Redress clients, and those seeking affordable, professional mental health support.

​

Our therapeutic style is integrative and tailored, drawing on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Somatic Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Interventions, and Motivational Interviewing. Our practice is guided by the Blue Knot Foundation’s guidelines and the work of renowned trauma experts such as Judith Herman, Bessel van der Kolk, and Babette Rothschild.

​

At Mend Melbourne, we are committed to creating a safe, respectful, and down-to-earth environment. Whether online or in our Upper Ferntree Gully counselling office, we offer a space where empathy, safety, and even humour support the process of healing and growth.
