Safe Place Therapy, Counselling Footscray

I can't recommend this place enough. I've had sessions with both Enda and Stuart and they've both been amazing at providing progressive, healthy and empathetic assistance. This has been true for both solo sessions as well as couples sessions.

They'll be my first choice for therapy for years to come.

Had my first session with Stuart Cheverton. Total vibe. Easy to talk to. Looking forward to future sessions:)

If he ever increased his prices - i’d hesitate for a second but then pay it

I have been seeing Defah for a few months now and this is my first experience with therapy. Defah makes you feel comfortable and relaxed, Defah has helped me so much than words can say! She has given me new perspectives and broadened my mind with every situation we have come across. I will forever be grateful for the time we have spent together!

Defah has a calming presence and makes me feel like the expert in my own life and experiences, but willing to work alongside me with her own expertise.

I have seen 5 different therapists in 4 different practices and Safe Place has made me feel the most comfortable! Walking in and being able to head to kitchen to make a tea and have a snack really helps put my mind in the right space.

I have been seeing Adam for nearly a year now I think and I genuinely look forward to heading in as I know it's an environment where I can discuss anything on my mind. I'm already outspoken for everyone going to therapy and this place only proves that.

Also walking in to a pride flag makes me feel just comfortable. (There is also an Indigenous flag!)

Adam has been amazing.supportive, easy and just an brilliant resource to help me navigate life and the challenges we have been facing nowadays. It takes a.lot of effort.to.find the right therapist and Adam from Safe Place has been my best find!

Thanks so much Safe Space for your services! I have been eternally grateful for the guidance and support offered by your staff during COVID 19. Highly recommend.

Safe place Therapy is a lovely space, the counselling rooms are well decorated and bring a sense of calm. I’ve been seeing Sophie Manente for several months now and from our very first session have felt comfortable, supported and understood. After having previous bad luck finding the right therapist for me I am so glad to have finally met Sophie. I feel a sense of ease speaking with her and find she provides an insightful perspective on my experiences. Highly recommend for any Queer folks out there who want to see someone that’ll understand their experiences.

We have been seeing Sophie for a couple of years now and she has been amazing with my children and myself. The sessions with Sophie were so helpful to overcome so many obstacles in our lives that I also recommended my family to see her. Amazing therapist. Listens, understands and allows you to work through things at your own pace. Highly recommended.

My daughter has been seeing Sophie for 6 months now for help with anxiety, and the change in her has been outstanding. Sophie is non-judgemental, gentle, easy to talk to, and the advice she provides is simple yet highly valuable.

I have always found opening up and being vulnerable in therapy a bit of a struggle. Sophie has provided a safe, supportive environment for me to be honest and find genuine help with my mental health. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I had a 10am message appointment with James and he did not show up. Finally at 10: 30 safe place therapy got hold of him with urgent to call me. He was not remorseful in the fact that he had left me there as he was more interested playing the victim and justifying his own behaviour than rectifying the situation whereby he has stood up a client. He was aggressive and arrogant on the phone and not willingly to listen to me the client but more interested man explaining. He even had the audacity to me the and the one that has been mishandled who has had a good hour wasted not to talk.

I have been attending sessions at this clinic for several months and I have had nothing but positive and constructive sessions and experiences. I cannot recommend seeing Stuart Cheverton enough. He has given me excellent strategies to create management plans for my health, and he has done so with impeccable professionalism and compassion.
Highly recommend!

I've found Safe Place to provide fantastic experience. I've struggled in the past to find a therapist that I can click with, and this has lead to me neglecting my mental health needs more than I should have. However, at Safe Place I've felt like I've made a lot of progress. Stuart has been an amazing help, especially through the ongoing lockdown, and I think this is a testament to the commitment and ethic displayed by this clinic.
Thank you very much for your ongoing support, it has been a tremendous help, and I would highly recommend Safe Place as absolutely living up to it's name in providing a safe therapeutic environment.

At Safe Place Therapy I’ve found a place where I feel comfortable sharing, and am given the support, encouragement and skills to continue my personal development

Stuart is great, we’ve been able to build a great rapport and I walk away from my sessions feeling lighter. Definitely a safe place

Had a great session with the counsellor for relationship management. Would recommend it to my family and friends and those who need to talk to someone

Highly professional services at affordable price. Got myself so relax and relieved after getting their services. Recommended to everyone.

Safe Place Therapy, Footscray helped me to come over my depression because of family problems. Now I am completely joyful person. They bring back my confidence and my personality. I will highly recommend them to all.
