Farewells & New BeginningsA Message from Blossomtree Psychology
Blossomtree Psychology was born from a shared passion to support children, adolescents, and families in our rural community. As two psychologists raised in country Victoria, Jess and Chelle often reflected on the deep influence of our upbringing—of being raised not just by family, but by a whole community. The idea that “it takes a village to raise a child” has always been at the heart of our work. For the past 10 years, Jess has been a co-founder, colleague, and friend in this journey. Her care, skill, and commitment to the work of Blossomtree Psychology have helped shape the heart of the practice. As Jess now moves on to pursue new directions, Chelle wants to acknowledge her incredible contribution and the lasting impact she’s had on the children and families we’ve had the privilege to walk alongside. This change in business structure also sadly means we’ll be farewelling our much-valued Clinical Psychologist Sheree and our kind and steady Administrative Assistant Margaret. Their contributions to Blossomtree have been deeply appreciated and will be greatly missed. Chelle is pleased to share that our wonderful Administrative Assistant Kristie will be staying on to support her and the families we continue to work with. As Blossomtree moves into its next chapter on August 1st 2025, Chelle will continue the practice as a solo clinician, carrying forward the values and vision that she and Jess established together. The Blossomtree still stands as a symbol of renewal, growth, and resilience—reminding us that with support and nurture, we can all blossom. Jess and Chelle are so grateful and appreciative to all who have supported us over the past 10 years: clients, families, local organisations, and our community. Chelle looks forward to continuing to support our community, and to honouring the stories, strengths, and healing journeys of the children and families who trust her with their care. Warmly, Chelle Taylor & Jessica Sewell Director & Clinical Psychologist Blossomtree Psychology Please continue to direct all correspondence to PO Box 116 Miners Rest, VIC, 3352 You can also email us at [email protected]

Blossomtree Psychology was born out of a shared passion and desire to help others. Chelle and Jess, the original founders of Blossomtree Psychology, were both born and raised in country Victoria. We have often reflected on our experiences of being raised not only by our families, but also by our rural communities, and the strong influence this upbringing has had on the paths we have taken in our lives. We have experienced first hand the concept that ‘it takes a village to raise a child’ and it is this ideal that drives us to want to give back to our local community by supporting the children, adolescents and families who make up our community. We chose the Blossomtree to represent our way of working; as for both of us it has significant meaning. While it is a symbol from our own childhoods, the Blossomtree’s life cycle also represents the opportunity for regeneration, and growth, and shows us that with support, nurture and guidance, we and those we work with, can find a renewed strength and be given the opportunity to blossom. In the years we have been practising as psychologists there has been no greater gift than the privilege of being invited into the journey of growth and to walk that path alongside the children and families we work with. In all of the work we do we carry with us the powerful lessons that these children and their families have taught us through their journey. We know that it is important for babies, children and their families to feel supported, and we work to ensure that each and everyone we work with feels heard, safe and respected. Chelle is thrilled to continue the work she and Jess set out to provide so to strengthen our kids, our families and our community. Hours Tuesday - Friday 9 to 5pm *please administrative support is available Tuesday and Wednesday by phone or email only*
