Do you remember a time when... life felt good, easy and familiar? When struggle, mistrust and that sense of feeling lost in it all weren’t the “norm”? Do those days feel like a distant memory? Hi, I'm Joanne Deaker and I help people like you break free of Good Girl Syndrome so they can unapologetically be themselves and enjoy life like they were meant too. I also specialize in divorce recovery. I use creative (arts therapy) and embodied (somatic) processes to help you get out of your head and into your body so we can go deep, get to the root of your challenges and move them.

I enjoy working with people who are interested in getting to know themselves at a deeper level and are committed to the therapeutic journey. My clients would describe me as genuine, caring and curious. Although diagnosis is sometimes important, I am more focused on the uniqueness and individuality of each client I work with and like to support my clients to have a better understanding of themselves and help them to connect with their own inner wisdom and move towards a fuller sense of wellbeing.

Psychology sessions give you the opportunity to take a step back and explore what is really important to you. We address implementing the fundamentals, of optimum sleep, nutrition, enjoyable movement and rewarding relationships to put you in the healthiest physiological and neurological state to respond adaptively to stress and challenges when they arise. Making this manageable and tangible sets you up to actualise goals and live in accordance with your valued priorities. I practice neurological condition through physiological health practices and resilience skill building. This is proactive mental health.

I support clients with a variety of presentations and referrals to enhance their overall lifestyle satisfaction and wellbeing. These range from anxiety and depressive symptoms, to self esteem and other more significantly deeply rooted psychological impairment, such as trauma. My clients are driven and motivated to create positive change in their lives by adopting proactive strategies, along with lowering their protective mechanisms to explore challenges which have had significant impacts on their wellbeing and functioning.

I am passionate about helping people in any capacity I can. Every story is valid, and valuable, and deserves to be heard, accepted and given unconditional love. Working with clients with a wide range of mental health presentations gives me the experience to make valuable contributions to people’s stories. My primary aim is to use my empathetic personality and training in a person-centred approach to create a safe space and help individuals reach their therapeutic goals. I believe in the power of stories and play hence I often use narrative therapy and play in my therapeutic approach along with various other modalities.
