Art Studio & Counselling Space
We are proud to call Yellow Gum Art Therapy Studio in Mill Park our home.
Our studio is a warm, creative and welcoming space with a separate art room and counselling room, designed to feel comfortable and less clinical.
Clients can sit on our couch by the large windows with natural light and views of the surrounding trees, or use our art room with access to a wide range of art and craft materials.
Whether you choose Art Therapy or Counselling, the space is designed to support self-expression, reflection, healing and growth in a way that feels comfortable for you.
Our Studio's Story
Created in 2022 after Melbourne’s long lockdowns.
Director Alana Stewart discovered an empty, unused room above the Stables Shopping Center and transformed it into a nurturing Art Therapy space.
Since then, it has grown into a hub for:
-
Art Therapy,
-
Play-based creative therapy,
-
Creative counselling,
-
and offers space to one regular Art Therapy group

Our Studio's Name
The Yellow Gum tree (Eucalyptus leucoxylon), native to southeastern Australia, produces stunning blooms in shades of white, pink, and red. These flowers are not only beautiful but also provide vital nectar for wildlife. Growing up to 30 metres tall and thriving in diverse environments, the Yellow Gum stands as a symbol of growth, nurturance, adaptability, and resilience.
Location
Our Mill Park studio is located above the Stables Shopping Centre.
Accessible via one flight of stairs only.
Sessions are available by appointment only.
From the studio you’ll enjoy calming treetop views, creating a peaceful and welcoming space for therapy.
