Welcome to 

The Nest Psychology
 

Melbourne

The Nest Psychology Melbourne, or as we like to call it, 'The Nest', is a space where growth, understanding, and connection come together. Inspired by the concept of ‘nesting’, we aim to create a safe, nurturing environment where children, adolescents, and their families feel supported, heard, and empowered. We believe that a strong foundation of safety and trust is essential for personal development and wellbeing. When young people feel secure and understood, they have the capacity to enter what we call the ‘learning zone’ – a space where one can develop the tools, skills, and confidence to move through life’s transitions.   At 'The Nest', our psychologists combine expertise with warmth and personality, offering care that respects and celebrates each individual’s way of being. Whether it’s managing stress and anxiety, navigating school and peer relationships, enhancing self-esteem, or building emotional coping skills, our focus is on fostering a sense of belonging, self-empowerment, and resilience in every young person we support. If you're looking for a team that prides itself on being approachable, down-to-earth, and genuinely committed to helping you create a balanced, joyful, and authentic life, we'd love to welcome you to 'The Nest'. We understand that childhood and adolescence are periods of growth, change, and sometimes uncertainty, and we're here to walk alongside you every step of the way.

We recognise that sovereignty was never ceded and that this land in which we work, live, create and connect always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
