Rachael is the founder and director of The Mama Well psychology practice specialising in maternal mental health. She is a registered developmental psychologist and mum of two who is deeply passionate about supporting women through the many seasons of motherhood. Her experience spans work with people of all ages and backgrounds, with particular expertise in anxiety, stress, attachment, family dynamics, identity, and self-esteem. Since becoming a mother herself, Rachael’s work has grown to focus on the inner world of mothers — the joys, the challenges, and the profound personal growth that motherhood brings. Grounded in evidence-based psychology and a deep respect for each mother’s unique story, Rachael’s approach is gentle, relational, and collaborative. She believes that healing happens through connection — and that a safe, supportive relationship is at the heart of meaningful change. With additional training in Circle of Security Parenting and Motherhood Studies, Rachael brings a rich understanding of attachment, emotional safety, and the realities of “good-enough” parenting. She also explores how modern motherhood is shaped by social and cultural expectations, helping women reflect on what truly matters to them. Rachael offers a compassionate and non-judgmental space for mothers to pause, reflect, and reconnect — with themselves, their values, and the kind of mother they want to be.
