About me

My practice
Hi I'm Jess (she/they) working in person on Gumbaynggirr country on the Mid-North Coast, NSW or online using telehealth sessions anywhere in the country.

I have been a therapist since 2020, before that I spent a many years in person-centred fields while studying psychology, literature, writing, philosophy and photography.

Sessions with me combine talking and creative mediums and they are great for anyone looking to find new insights or perspectives on whatever shows up.

My style is often described as relaxed and gentle with a touch a humour and lots of understanding. My work is grounded in humanism, creative expression and somatic (body-based & mindfulness) practices.

I will always go at your own pace and tailor our sessions to help your comfort. Feel free to bring your unique style and differences.

When I'm being creative I mostly write, photograph, paint, sculpt and play music. So we may do any of these during session or bring in other modes that you enjoy.

For the majority of my career I have worked in community mental health settings as well as in the disability sector & with people experiencing addiction.

PTSD, trauma recovery / survivorship are my areas of focus and expertise. I am a lived-experience practitioner in this area.

If you need a non-judgemental space that is creative and flexible it's likely I'll be a good practitioner for you.

There are so many reasons why I do this work but primarily it is to assist others to know themselves better or face the challenges of life with more confidence & creative perspective.

Please feel free to reach out.
