About Mind Over Matters
We're here to be something different.
Too many people have sat in rooms where they felt judged, misunderstood, or quietly told that the way their brain works is a problem to be solved. Too many people have left therapy feeling worse about themselves than when they arrived
Our Team
Hey, I'm George. Accredited Mental Health Social Worker & Co-Founder of Mind Over Matters
I have a special interest, due to my training & own lived experience, in supporting:
Neurodivergent folks (ADHD, Autism) navigating a world not always built for us!
Stress management & burnout. Sometimes we just forget to look after ‘us’.
Men’s Mental Health As a male, 'I’m passionate about encouraging other men to challenge societal norms, and seek help, be vulnerable and get the support they need.
Life transitions, identity & attachment. Its amazing how small things from our past, we can let determine who we are today.
Supervision & Management / Business Support. - With many years’ experience in management, I also provide Clinical Supervision.

Hi, I’m Tiarni, an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker and Co-founder of Mind Over Matters.
Some of the areas I’m especially passionate about include:
Women’s Health – Supporting women through identity, pregnancy, motherhood, hormonal changes, and life transitions.
Neurodivergence – Helping people with ADHD and Autism better understand themselves and thrive in a world not always designed for us.
Parenting & Carer Support – Supporting parents and carers of neurodivergent children, including PDA profiles.
Relationships – Exploring attachment, boundaries, and patterns to build healthier, more secure connections. (Couples counselling coming soon!)
Identity – Navigating self-discovery, personal growth, and living authentically, unmasked.
We work with people who feel different, who have been told they are “too much” or “not enough”, who are carrying things they've never had the right space to put down. We work with families navigating complexity, with practitioners building their clinical skills, and with anyone who has ever thought “I just need someone who actually gets it”
Where to Find Us
Mind Over Matters is based in Swan Hill, Victoria, serving our local community and the broader Loddon Mallee region. We also provide telehealth counselling to clients across Victoria and Australia — making quality mental health support accessible regardless of where you live.
For many people in regional areas, telehealth has been genuinely life-changing, removing travel time, reducing cost, and making it possible to access quality support that simply wasn't available locally. Research consistently shows telehealth counselling is as effective as face-to-face therapy for most presentations.
We have regular clients attend in person sessions from Swan Hill, Kerang, Lake Boga, Cohuna, Nyah, Robinvale, Wycheproof, Balranald & Sea Lake
Well Matters: Couple and Relationship Counselling
Alongside Mind Over Matters, we've created Well Matters — a dedicated couples and relationship therapy practice built on the same values that guide everything we do here.
Well Matters uses the Gottman Method — one of the most extensively researched approaches to couples therapy in the world — with a particular specialisation in neurodiverse relationships, including ADHD, autism, AuDHD, and mixed neurotype couples.
If you or someone you know is looking for couples support, we'd love to help.
