Philosophy & Vision
At JB Consulting and Psychology, we understand that every person is unique and sometimes needs a little extra support. Our experienced and compassionate child, adolescent and adult psychologist, Josephine, is dedicated to providing the best care for her clients.
Josephine has a special interest helping children and adolescents facing emotional, behavioural, and social challenges as well as supporting children and adults cope with separation and divorce. She also has a special interest in helping her clients heal from trauma with therapies such as EMDR and CBT.
Background
In 2010 I began my journey in mental health as a counsellor working with children, adolescents and adults. Since 2021 I registered as a psychologist and initially supported clients of all ages on NDIS Psychology and Behaviour Support funding to achieve their goals and currently with Psychology funding. I have worked in organisations running communication and mental health workshops. I continue to work with children, adolescents and adults to improve their mental health, and separated and divorced parents to manage communication, cope with grief and loss and manage coparenting.
Now I am trained in EMDR. I tailor my work to meet my client's need. I continue to work holistically with my clients to achieve the best outcomes.

While progress is gradual and different for each client signs include increased self-awareness and able to share emotions. They also talk about improvements between sessions.

I have learned that no matter what people go through, there is the ability to heal. The tools have not only been helpful for my clients but also myself.
-
The ability to heal and the privilege to listen to my client's stories for healing.
-
Yes I have had many but I make sure I am psychologically present for my clients.

climate change, the inability to see from another perspective and lack of boundaries.
