Hi, I’m Nicole,
founder of
The Grounding Space.

I’m an ACA Accredited Counsellor and a ceremicist.

The Grounding Space bridges art and therapy to support holistic wellbeing. We believe in the power of presence — and that healing can happen through words, through hands, and through the quiet spaces in between.


We practice at the following locations:

  • R2R Health (Moonee Ponds): Counselling services in a clinical setting

  • The Grounding Space Studio (Private Studio): Clay sessions and integrated therapy in a nurturing creative environment

Our Approach

I work from a person-centred, trauma-informed, and neuroaffirming foundation — attuned to the unique pace and story of each person we work with.

I take an integrative approach and utilise somatic as well as creative practices where suitable and beneficial for my clients.

Through holding a safe non-judgemental therapeutic space, I provide a supportive and secure attachment for you to explore your thoughts, emotions, and unconscious.

Our Locations

  • At R2R, I work collaboratively with a multidisciplinary mental health care team to ensure that you are well supported. The clinic has psychiatrists, clinical psychologists mental health nurse practitioners on site, conveniently located across Moonee Ponds train station.

    This is where Face to Face (F2F) talk therapy sessions are held.

  • Located in Oak Park, VIC, our private studio conducts sessions by appointment only. We have a fully equipped ceramics studio where you can create to your heart’s content!
