The Studio is discreetly located at the rear of a residential property and is completely separate, with its own entrance. A smart lock entrance provides code access for practitioners and clients, as well as the security of a locked premises while you work.
The entrance takes you directly into the waiting room & kitchenette, with various seating options including outward looking on the bar stool, the comfy and contained tub chair and also a bench seat for an easy perch. The overhead fan not only provides a lovely breeze in summer, it assists with noise buffering. There is also a SONOS speaker for both atmosphere and sound buffering.
There is a kitchenette where anyone is welcome to make themselves a cuppa or have a chilled glass of water while waiting. There is a small fridge and microwave for clinicians to use. Behind the kitchenette is a modern bathroom. There are many interesting lighting options throughout including dimmers on the downlights.

Working at Evergreen
We have created a peaceful environment that's calm and clean when you walk in, and a place your clients will love coming to. We offer full day contract rentals Monday to Friday, and the option of half days on Fridays and Saturdays. Full days mean that you are not waiting to get into your room or rushing to get out. It’s yours for the day, keep the hours that work best for you. Annual contracts come with pro-rata four weeks rent free, and you won't be paying rent when your day/s fall on public holidays if you don't work, because we know it’s tough taking holidays when there is no income. Second year contracts increase to 5 weeks equivalent leave. Opportunity for additional casual rental subject to availability. You will also have your own lockable drawer available to keep items on site. We can create a brief profile on the Evergreen Studio website to increase your exposure to our referrers: Evergreen Studio Homepage

What our clinicians say about working at Evergreen.....
"I've been really happy renting at Evergreen Studio since January 2023. Margie is supportive and approachable with ideas or requests. The space is lovely, and clients often comment on the fact that it makes them feel comfortable. Many of my clients are autistic adults, and so this is a huge asset. I feel that renting at Evergreen Studio is great value for money, and I highly recommend it."

"Evergreen Studio is a very special space, clearly designed with both the needs of the therapist and the client in mind. It’s an oasis of calm and comfort that always puts a smile on my face when I arrive. My clients love it too. Margie is very responsive and takes great care over the details so I can focus on my practice."
-Jennifer Preston
"Clients have consistently reported how calming Evergreen's clinical space (the Maple Room) is. It is modern, but not soulless. A warm, clean, quiet and home-like environment. This assists me greatly in establishing trust with new clients and providing them with a haven in which to do the hard work that therapy often involves"
- Ruairi Gallagher
“Evergreen Studio Thornbury offers practical, aesthetically soothing rooms with easy secure access. Since renting rooms here in March 2024, I’ve found that clients have appreciated the space (which can also make a difference when they’re engaging in trauma therapy). The full-day contract helps with structuring your day as you wish, creating breaks between clients flexibly. Studio founder Margie provides excellent support, welcomes ideas, and fosters community among practitioners through offering occasional social gatherings. Margie has thought of everything!”
– Naomi de Weger
''The most beautiful space for a group practice I have ever worked at, with clients also echoing this sentiment. Margie has been very supportive and helpful."
