About

Madelaine Vallin

Psychotherapist, educator, artist and founder of the InteMind Method®, Madelaine Vallin’s work sits at the intersection of human potential, creativity and our relationship with the natural world. Her work spans psychotherapy, education, music and writing, all connected by a single purpose: helping people live, lead and create from a more integrated place.

For more than two decades, Madelaine has worked with individuals, practitioners, leaders and creatives, supporting personal growth, professional development and psychological wellbeing. Her approach combines evidence-informed practice with a deep appreciation for human experience, recognising that lasting transformation emerges not only through insight, but through connection, meaning and integration.

Born in Sweden and now based in Australia, Madelaine’s work is deeply influenced by Nordic culture, landscape and philosophy. The forests, changing seasons and traditions of her childhood continue to shape her understanding of resilience, belonging and our relationship with the living world.
In 2018, she founded the Australian School of Holistic Counselling, which grew to educate and support thousands of students and practitioners. That work now enters its next chapter through InteMind Institute, with a focus on further education and advanced professional training, while InteMind International in the UK continues to provide foundational practitioner education. Across her work, Madelaine continues to develop ideas, frameworks and approaches that bring together psychology, education, creativity and the natural world.

Alongside her therapeutic work, Madelaine is a music composer and artist under the ENERTREE Sounds label. Her current project, JORDIC, combines original compositions with tree biofeedback recordings gathered in Sweden, creating immersive soundscapes inspired by Nordic principles and humanity’s relationship with nature. Like the InteMind Method®, her music explores themes of belonging, resilience, connection and coming home to ourselves.

Whether through psychotherapy, teaching, writing or music, Madelaine’s work invites people to reconnect with themselves, navigate change with greater clarity and contribute to the world from a place of authenticity, wisdom and wholeness.
