Philosophy & Vision
Jenny is a registered counsellor and psychotherapist with over 10+ years’ experience supporting a diverse range of clients across clinical, community and corporate settings. She believes that meaningful change happens when people feel truly heard, valued and supported to access their own strengths and resources, and be guided by their values. She has worked with clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, loss and grief, suicidal thoughts, work related stresses and life transitions, using a warm, practical, culturally attuned, and collaborative approach. She also supports couples to improve communication, manage conflict, and strengthen connection.
Background
With a background in Psychology and an MBA, Jenny brings extensive experience supporting individuals through organisational change, workplace stress, career transitions and wellbeing challenges. Her work across healthcare, transport and community services gives her strong insight into the psychological demands of high-pressure environments and significant life or work transitions.
Jenny uses a person-centred, trauma-informed approach, helping clients strengthen resilience, enhance psychological safety and navigate change in ways aligned with their goals, values and life stage. Her practice supports people to integrate wellbeing with the realities of work and relationships, enabling greater clarity, confidence and alignment.

She works alongside her clients to explore what matters most, set meaningful goals and identify pathways forward that align with their life stage, context, needs and values. Jenny uses an integrated approach using modalities including CBT, DBT, ACT, solution-focused narrative and psychodynamic psychotherapy.
Alongside her individual work, she is passionate about relationship and couples therapy, drawing on both the Gottman Method and Prepare/Enrich frameworks. She support couples to improve communication, manage conflict constructively, and strengthen emotional connection - creating a safe, respectful space where both partners can feel heard and understood.
