Welcome
To Rainbow Muse Collective, a constellation of radically affirming therapy practices, united in purpose, diverse in form.
Rainbow Muse Collective is a community of independent therapy practitioners within a shared ecosystem.
Each therapist runs their own unique practice, but we’re united by shared values: radical love, embodied practice, neurodivergent joy, decolonial care, and deep respect for lived experience.
We’re not a clinic, we’re a collective. Each practitioner sets their own rhythm, offers their own style of support, and works in ways that are authentic to them. No central intake. No triage. Just connection, your way. That means
➤ Each therapist has their own page, approach, and contact details.
➤ You can see who’s currently accepting referrals and reach out to them directly.
➤ If they have a waitlist, you’ll be able to join it from their page.
Who we are
The Rainbow Muse Collective is a loving community of allied therapy providers offering radically affirming, trauma-informed, and neurodivergence-affirming care.
Rooted in values of relational safety, creativity, and collective healing, we work collaboratively—honouring each person’s unique story, identity, and way of being in the world.
Based on Wurundjeri Country in Naarm (Melbourne), we offer a diverse range of therapeutic supports, including: Art therapy, mental health peer support, psychology, child-centred play therapy, dance and movement therapy, family therapy, developmental therapy, animal-assisted therapy and trauma-sensitive yoga
All services are provided in an inclusive, culturally responsive environment that celebrates diversity across neurotypes, bodies, genders, cultures, and lived experiences.
We are not here to “fix” people. We are here to walk alongside—co-creating spaces where people can reconnect to themselves, their communities, and their sense of possibility.
How Rainbow Muse Became a COllective
Rainbow Muse began as a dream. In 2019, Chenai founded Rainbow Muse with the vision of creating a magical, therapeutic safe space for those who don’t fit neatly into boxes—people often overlooked, misread, or pathologised by systems not built for them. A place where neurodivergence, queerness, cultural complexity, and radical softness could be held with care.
The dream grew. And in 2022, Chenai joined forces with her best friend Sammy—founder of Girl and Dog Psychology, fellow youth mental health rebel, and passionate disruptor of the norm. Together, they opened Rainbow Muse Clinic, pouring their hearts into building a home for fierce, creative, radically affirming care.
Over two incredible years, our team and community expanded beyond anything we imagined. But so did the weight—of long waitlists, endless referrals, and a clinical system that too often demands more than it gives. The clinic model, with its hierarchies and pressures, began to pull us away from our values.
So we made a bold choice. We dismantled the clinic. And rebuilding something softer, braver, more aligned. A home built not from the top down, but from the inside out. A collective led by shared values, collective leadership, and deep trust in community care.
We are artists, therapists, troublemakers, and dreamers. We work on Wurundjeri Country, with an unwavering commitment to decolonial, neuro-affirming, and intersectional practice. We honour lived experience and the wisdom of those too often silenced.
We believe healing is not about compliance—it’s about connection. It’s about being seen, protected, and empowered to live fully, messily, and magnificently as yourself. r
