our story
The Village Around Me started in 2021 by our founder & Clinical Psychologist Stephanie Loielo. On a mission to increase accessibility to supports to your everyday new parent, and in the midst of a pandemic, Steph was incredibly aware of the struggle of navigating a new world of parenthood. Where does a new mum even start with accessing support? So for the first 2 years, Steph built The Village Around Me as a home visit and Telehealth perinatal psychology service in Adelaide, offering the 1:1 therapeutic space new mothers needed to access outside of a clinic setting. Over time, Steph built a small team of psychologists to ensure mothers weren't waiting months on end to get the support they needed.
Then came the post-pandemic world, where connection was craved more than ever. Steph saw the need for growing face-to-face appointments. Spaces where expectant and new mothers, fathers, and families needed to be held and nurtured and let out a sigh of relief when entering the therapy space. So TVAM expanded to offering in-clinic sessions, working out of a local GP practice. Time and time again arose a need for the community to strengthen their connection with their new selves, and each other. The need for expectant mothers to meet, a space for couples to connect post-baby life, and a space for families explore their values as a new
family unit.
And so, The Village Around Me opened it doors and arms to the community to offer what has over time been lost; a village. The village that generations of mothers prior received from the small communities they lived in, a concept that is creeping back into our ideology,
slowly but surely.
This is a new generation of family. one where we care deeply about entering parenthood with openness, strength, and the courage to feel our spectrum of emotions. The generation that want to raise resilient, brave little people that give themselves permission to be their authentic selves, that seek connection and comfort, and love wholeheartedly. The generation that wants to heal, when so many generations prior didn't have the space needed to. Our wellbeing matters, and here at The Village Around Me, let's work together to create the village around you, that you need to thrive.
