Jo, Registered Psychologist, BA (Hons), MPsych (Clinical)
I am deeply passionate about supporting people to improve their overall health and wellbeing, in ways that feel meaningful, respectful, and sustainable. At the heart of my work is a belief that self-awareness is transformative. When we begin to understand ourselves more clearly, genuine change becomes possible.
I have worked in the humanities space for almost two decades, with 18 years of experience supporting people across a wide range of life circumstances. My professional journey has included working closely with vulnerable members of the community, including victims of crime and individuals experiencing family violence. In these roles, I provided trauma-informed emotional support and psychological first aid during times of acute stress and uncertainty.
Alongside this, I have worked within aged care and hospital settings, offering psychological assessment and treatment across all stages of development, from childhood through to older adulthood. These experiences have shaped a broad, compassionate understanding of how wellbeing concerns can present differently across the lifespan, and how care must be tailored to each individual.
My approach is grounded in evidence-based practice, balanced with warmth, compassion, and genuine human connection. I aim to create a space where people feel safe to explore their experiences, develop insight, and build skills that support long-term wellbeing. Therapy, for me, is not about “fixing” someone — it’s about walking alongside people as they learn more about themselves and discover what helps them feel more grounded, capable, and whole.
