Seek The Why
You notice the struggles, feel the changes, and want answers to give them the best support possible.
Through professional assessment, we discover exactly how your child learns, processes, and experiences their world. Then, we coach you to be the steady hand that guides them forward.
Parent Support
Hold The Space
As their world expands—with complex friendships, rising school demands, and big emotions—the best person to support your child is you.
Whether you need help actioning an existing assessment or seek short-term parenting guidance, we are here. Let us help you become the confident wellbeing coach your child needs.
PARENTAL MENTAL HEALTH
Rebuild Your Capacity
You cannot pour from an empty cup, and you cannot co-regulate a child from an exhausted nervous system. Our goal is to help you navigate chronic stress, and develop practical strategies to support your own wellbeing. Medicare rebates may apply.

About Us
Meet Mel
Hi, I’m Mel, Registered Psychologist and Founder of Wellnest Psychology.
I partner with families to uncover a child’s strengths and empower parents to become their ultimate wellbeing coach.
Known for my collaborative approach and expertise in child wellbeing, I have built a reputation for helping hundreds of families create a systemic shift toward harmony in their homes.
As a solo mum by choice, I bring deep personal empathy to my work alongside a Master of Professional Psychology with Distinction.
Away from the clinic, you will usually find me busy growing backyard watermelons with my son, crafting memory-making experiences or enjoying a coffee outdoors.
So glad you’re here. Stay awhile!
