About us
Meet the C0-Founders
Raichel is an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker with over 30 years of experience in mental health care.
Madelein is a Clinical Counsellor and Social Worker.
Raich has worked across both inpatient and outpatient mental health units, led social work teams within NSW Health and private mental health facilities, and facilitated DBT groups in both public and private settings. She has worked overseas as a Torture and Trauma Counsellor, and at home in Australia with Indigenous communities. She now focuses her work in private practice, supporting individuals through trauma-informed, evidence-based care at Wise Mind Collective. She has a passion for working with people with a diagnosis of BPD and who have experienced childhood trauma.
Maddy brings deep expertise in working with high-risk, complex clients in crisis and suicide prevention settings. She has coordinated and managed large clinical teams and developed DBT group programs. Her leadership and clinical insight make her an invaluable part of the team.
The two met in 2022, quickly connecting over a shared passion for DBT. Their relationship blossomed through this mutual vision: to make DBT skills and trauma therapy accessible to all— individuals, carers, and clinicians alike. Their combined expertise and heartfelt dedication shape every aspect of Wise Mind, creating a space where learning, support, and connection come to life.
Together, Maddy and Raich balance each other’s strengths, combining practical experience with therapeutic excellence and evidenced based practice to support meaningful mental health recovery. Their shared passion for trauma-focused therapies such as DBT led them to launch Wise Mind: A DBT Podcast, where they explore a DBT trauma-informed approach each week.
Through engaging podcast episodes, individual and group clinical supervision for helping professionals, and tailored DBT skills training for organisations, we create accessible, evidence-based resources designed to support both personal and professional growth.
Whether you’re looking to deepen your therapeutic practice, explore DBT in action, or equip your team with practical tools, we’re here to help. Tune in weekly for insights, strategies, and authentic conversations — or connect with us directly to create meaningful change for yourself, your clients, or your workplace.
Together, we build lives worth living.
