About Us

At Treat Yourself Well Sydney, we’ve been supporting the mental health and well-being of the Inner West since 2007. Our practice promotes genuine inclusive care offering a warm and welcoming environment, designed to make you and our clients feel at ease from the moment you walk in. We pride ourselves on being a trauma-informed, neurodiversity affirming, gender inclusive and we value lived experience - we see the person for who they are. We believe in empowering individuals to thrive—embracing each person’s uniqueness as they move toward healing and growth. For us it is all about educating and supporting our clients to navigate life with confidence.

We’re a dynamic, values-driven team passionate about supporting individuals across the lifespan — from children and adolescents to adults, families, and carers. Our work is rooted in a neurodiversity-affirming and systemic approach, with a strong focus on Eating Disorders (including non-diet therapies), Autism, ADHD, and ARFID and the impact of trauma.

We recognise the importance of intersectionality — understanding how overlapping identities like race, gender, sexuality, ability, and culture shape a person’s experiences and access to care. This awareness informs every aspect of our practice.

We thrive on innovation, collaboration, and systemic thinking to create meaningful, lasting change. Sound like your kind of team? Let’s talk.
