Our Story

Seaside Wellness Collective is a small, welcoming allied health space built around a our belief that wellbeing is personal, and the spaces in which we provide and receive care should feel human.

Our aim is to create a professional yet homely environment where individuals feel safe, comfortable and genuinely welcome. A place where clients can come as they are, knowing they will be met with warmth, respect and care, and where clinicians can build meaningful professional lives in a space that feels like their own.

Founded by psychologists Candice Nicholls and Miriam Chin, Seaside Wellness Collective grew from their shared experience of working independently, within established practices and alongside other health professionals. Both understand the importance of having a professional space that is not only functional and clinically appropriate, but also warm, welcoming and reflective of the people who work within it. Their vision is to create the kind of environment they would want for their own clients and for fellow clinicians. One that supports independence while making room for connection, collaboration and community.

We believe that a collective is stronger when it celebrates the individuality of the people within it. Each practitioner brings their own expertise, values, personality and way of working. Our clinicians remain independent business owners, with the freedom to honour their own professional identity, while being part of a supportive and collaborative community.

Rather than creating a space that feels clinical or corporate, we envision an eclectic home for health and wellbeing that is thoughtfully designed, calm and inviting, with different personalities and practices coming together under one roof.

For our clients, this means having access to a range of independent health professionals within a familiar, welcoming environment. For our subleasing clinicians, it means having a professional base that they can genuinely make their own, while being surrounded by other like-minded practitioners who understand the realities, responsibilities and rewards of running an independent practice.

We hope Seaside Wellness Collective becomes more than simply a collection of consulting rooms. We want it to feel like a professional home. A place where clients feel safe to be themselves, and where practitioners feel supported to build their own businesses, identities and careers.

At its heart, Seaside Wellness Collective is about individuality within community: independent practices, shared values, and a space that feels like home.
