About Us

A female-owned practice, built to work alongside you, not just for you.

 Middlepath Allied Health has been Adelaide's home for Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and Schema Therapy since 2022. Small enough to know your name, experienced enough to know exactly how to help.   

Our story

Middlepath Allied Health was founded in 2022 by Caroline, who had spent decades working inside larger mental health systems and who wanted something different for the people she treated.


She saw how easily people fell through the cracks of high caseloads and long waitlists, especially those needing Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and Schema Therapy - two of the most effective, but most time- and relationship-intensive, treatments available.


So she built the Adelaide based practice around a simpler idea: offer both individual and group therapy in a setting small enough to work hand in hand with every client, session after session, rather than handing people off between services. Now with a skilled team working alongside her, that is still how Middlepath operates today.

Values we live by

Hand in hand

Evidence, delivered with warmth

 Therapy is collaborative, not something done to you. We work alongside every client to set the pace and shape the goals.

 DBT and Schema Therapy are clinically proven, we deliver them with the personal care of a small, invested team. 

Access without long waits

 We keep our caseloads manageable on purpose, so people in genuine need aren't stuck on a months-long waitlist. 

Growth, ours included

Why Middlepath allied health?

Specialists, not generalists. DBT and Schema Therapy are our focus, not an add-on to a broad general-counselling practice. 


A team, not a single therapist. If your regular practitioner is away, you're still supported by a team who knows your history. 


Individual and group, side by side. Move between one-on-one sessions and structured skills groups as your needs change, without switching providers. 


Adelaide-based, Australia-wide. See us in person in College Park, or via telehealth from anywhere in South Australia and beyond.
