A warm space to explore your experiences, your identity and your relationships.
Hi, I'm Michelle Lin
I warmly welcome you.
I am an anti-oppressive & social justice-oriented person working and living on the unceded land of the Bidjigal and Gadigal people that is colonially called Sydney NSW.
I guide with warmth, curiosity, and openness—bringing both my personal lived experience and my professional experience to my work as counsellor, clinical supervisor, community worker and consultant living in the intersectionality of LGBTIQA+, neurodivergent, and person of colour.
I draw on a wide-range of approaches and therapeutic frameworks. At the centre of our work together is a relationship built on mutual openness, respect, safety and trust.
I believe community is the cure for society’s problems while therapy is not, but therapy can help you find or build it.

“Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.”
— Audre Lorde
Individual & relationship counselling
I offer inclusive, trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming, individual and relationship counselling for people of colour, LGBTIQA+ folk and people from diverse cultures, backgrounds, identities, experiences and relationships.
Clinical supervision
I offer both individual and group relational, critically reflective, Anti-Oppressive Practice, use of self and safe spaces for students, new grads, activists and peers working in counselling, social workers and helping roles. We talk about moral injury, ethical dilemmas, career direction and more.
Community work + consultant
I offer consultation, coaching, workshop facilitation on social work and counselling subjects such as trauma-informed, justice-oriented, anti-oppressive approaches.
I also facilitate community accountability processes, restorative justice / transformative justice processes, listening circles, and reflection spaces for adults, co-design and co-production projects.
