Hi, I'm Aimée! [she/her]
Un-ashamedly Human first, Therapist second.
I live and work on Dharawal land, on the beautiful southeast coast of Sydney.
And I am so glad that you're here!
​
I like to bring both of our humanness to the therapy space. Messiness, with no judgment. I welcome tissue-filled tears, and embodied emotion, raw reflection, and a light touch of humour. You can disclose as much or as little as you like. I don't want you to feel as though we are moving through a textbook, as we know that life is never that scripted.
​
I've worn a few different hats across my studies and career; beginning in psychology, moving through exercise and sports science, and rehabilitation counselling, and even qualifications as a personal trainer. This allowed me the opportunity of varied knowledge and experience, and appreciation of the mind-body connection, and still I inevitably found my way back to psychology, my true love, for which I am forever grateful.
If you are feeling lost, stuck, heavy, or detached, I promise you're not broken. Just human.
The Kind Collective is a space where you are invited to show up authentically, and you can trust that as your therapist, I will do the same.
I welcome you to connect with me, where we can meet this version of self with kindness and have grace while we explore how you came to be here, and where you’d like to be.
​
Feel welcome to head over to our FAQ, or reach out for us to schedule a brief intake call, to see if we are the right fit.
​
With kindness always,
​
​

outside the therapy room
Outside the therapy room, I’m a new mum navigating the beautiful mess of matrescence. I’m a wife, a daughter, a sister, and I care deeply about my family.
I cherish sisterhood and the friendships that feel grounding. I’m a recovering people pleaser.
I drink my coffee with oat milk, laugh loudly [often at my own jokes], and spend more time than I’d like on TikTok. I’m learning - in real time - what it means to be human in this season too.
Wonderful, by Harry Baker
Of all the words you’ll ever hear, remember these:
Life is too short to eat celery,
Life is too long to feed jealousy,
And life is likely just the right length to need therapy.
May you be seriously silly,
May you be wickedly kind,
May you be brilliantly dumb sometimes
And yet stupidly bright.
May you certainly have doubts,
May your weirdness be the norm,
May the coolest thing about you be your warmth.
May you be powerfully vulnerable
Or at least mightily soft,
May you be a contradiction
And at the same time not.
And whether you are any, none, or all of the above,
Above all, may you know that you are loved.
