About Us
Ancient Wisdom for Modern Minds.
We’re a collective of three Accredited & Experienced Sydney based therapists — Linda, Tania and Maria — each bringing a unique therapeutic style grounded in warmth, professionalism, and psychological depth.
Our practice is located in the beautiful GPT Space & Co. at Darling Park Towers on Sussex St, in the heart of Sydney's CBD, making it easy and convenient to access therapy for busy professionals needing a break from the demands of modern life, with Telehealth sessions available for those in need of flexibility.
With a range of expertise across Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Approaches, Trauma-Informed Counselling, Grief Therapy, Anxiety Support and more, together we offer a gentle, collaborative approach that supports clients in making meaningful and lasting change.
At Syné Collective, we believe therapy is more than just a conversation. It’s a space to explore, understand, and intentionally shape your life.
Meet The Team
Our Story
At Syné Collective (pronounced sin-ay), our work is rooted in timeless principles: reflection, balance, compassion, and the pursuit of self-understanding. These are not new ideas — they echo ancient philosophies like sophrosyne, which spoke to the power of inner harmony and mindful living.
Yet, we live in a fast-paced, constantly shifting world, and modern minds face modern pressures. Burnout, anxiety, disconnection, decision fatigue. In this context, the old wisdom feels more relevant than ever.
'Ancient wisdom for modern minds' is our way of bringing depth into the present moment. It’s a reminder that healing doesn’t have to be cold, or clinical. It can be rooted, rich, and deeply human.
Yes, we draw on evidence-based therapeutic practices, but also on enduring human truths:
That you are more than your symptoms.
That knowing yourself is powerful.
And that peace is possible, even here, in the middle of it all.
Why Therapy Matters?
A Space to Reflect
Counselling and Psychotherapy offer more than just a place to talk. They provide a space to slow down, reflect, and make sense of your inner landscape. In a fast-paced, often overwhelming world in a busy city like Sydney where life moves fast, therapy becomes an anchor — A chance to reconnect with yourself with curiosity, care, and compassion.
Starting Your Journey
Many people begin their journey with a simple search for "Counselling Near Me", "Psychologist Sydney CBD" or "Anxiety Therapy Sydney", unsure of what to expect. At Syné Collective, we make that first step feel less daunting by creating a welcome space where you can explore what you need at your own pace. No referral required. No wait rooms. No white coats or fluorescent lights. Just a warm, judgment free space to land designed for comfort and connection. We offer a 15 minute free consultation over the phone, or simply pop in and say hello at any time to see if Syné is right for you!
In Good Times & In Bad
Whether you're working through anxiety, navigating grief, healing from past experiences, or simply wanting to understand yourself more deeply, Therapy can bring clarity, resilience and emotional balance. Counselling goes beyond addressing immediate challenges, and empowers you to understand the why behind who you are. We provide a safe and structured environment to process your experiences, build resilience and regain emotional balance, so that when life throws you a curveball, you can navigate it with clarity and strength.
Insight & Connection
At Syné Collective, we believe that insight and connection are the foundations of change. We walk alongside you with steadiness, warmth and respect for your pace and process. Over time, your Therapist will work with you to uncover your strengths, confront self-limiting believes and set meaningful goals. It may feel uncomfortable at times, but with time and reflection, this discomfort and uncertainty will transform into confidence, clarity and intentional action.

Life Design: A new way to experience Therapy.
At Syné Collective, we are starting a Mental Health Care Revolution and changing the way Sydneysiders experience and access Therapy.
Seeking support shouldn't be limited to managing symptoms or working through a crisis when life gets tough. It is about actively designing your life and building an integrated and modern wellness routine.
Ancient civilisations gave rise to visionary architects and builders who crafted structures built to endure the test of time. Anchored in this ancient wisdom but designed for modern minds,
Syné Collective offers an empowering, intentional, and creative space where you can explore the architecture of your life—examining limiting beliefs, uncovering what holds you back, and discovering what helps you grow.
Many people invest in services like life coaching to gain guidance on career growth, fitness or goal setting. This support can be valuable, but they typically focus on performance and success in a traditional or corporate sense. Therapy, on the other hand, is centred on your overall wellbeing — mind, body and soul — and is grounded in evidence, research, best-practice frameworks and proven psychological approaches.
At Syné Collective, you can experience a holistic approach drawing from a range of modalities, such as CBT, Mindfulness and Person-Centered Therapy, to help you build a life that's strong, resilient and truly yours.
Think of Therapy as 'Life Design':
-
Lay a strong foundation – let go of what no longer serves you and make space for what matters.
-
Craft with intention – shape your habits, relationships, and mindsets to reflect your values.
-
Fortify for longevity – develop the clarity and resilience to navigate life’s transitions confidently.
