who we are

The Safe Space responds to the need for physical spaces that are conducive to healing, and the need for community among psychotherapists. Founded by practitioners and consumers of therapy, we get it. We recognise the need for community in an otherwise isolating profession, the importance of ethical practice, and how a comfortable and functional physical space can support and transform clinical work.
