My name is Donna and I am a Psychologist with 15 years experience. I have also studied other healing modalities so I take a holistic and integrated approach to your wellbeing- mind, body and soul! I can help with all the common problems we face in life such as anxiety, depression, stress and relationship difficulties. I also have a lot of experience in helping people recover from trauma and with grief and loss. I see children, teens and adults including those with disabilities.

Finding a counsellor that is a good fit for you is important, and not always easy. Sometimes we have a clear idea of what we need, we just don't know how to get there. Other times we have no sense of what we need to change, only that something needs to. I will provide a safe space for you to learn about yourself so that you can develop knowledge and skills that you can use in your everyday life.

Hello and welcome! I'm Jen and I provide a safe, compassionate, non-judgemental space for you to explore your concerns with a warm, empathetic, client centred therapist. If you feel like you're treading water or drowning under life's pressures and you need some help, you've come to the right place. As a Master of Counselling qualified therapist, I incorporate a variety of evidence-based interventions and tailor therapy to your needs, preferences, and values. I help you understand underlying factors that are contributing to your current problems, develop new skills and strategies, make changes, and move towards healing and recovery.

I have been working in a professional, caring and sensitive way with individuals and families in private practice (and in their homes) for over twenty years treating a variety of complex mental health issues including stress, anxiety, depression, anger management, AD/HD, autism and women's issues. I have also been delivering the Parenting Together Program (PTP) into homes for over 15 years. PTP is an individualized early intervention program designed for 3-8 years to reduce child non-compliance and improve a secure child-parent attachment to promote and enhance positive long term social/emotional and behavioural outcomes.

I help individuals and couples gain some clarity and self awareness around their core concerns. As a male counsellor I often see the benefit of being able to give that different perspective as a man to men and women. Most people are concerned with how they relate to themselves and others. Love, belonging, intimacy, impact, significance, security all these deeper questions are at core of what it means to be human and function in the world. Who am I? How do I relate? Am I loved? Can I love? These question and concerns are often driving us. I help people explore these aspects of ourselves.

Adult ADHD is my passion. I enjoy assisting clients to reach their potential as a neurodiverse individual. I am a practitioner with lived experience of ADHD - gaining a diagnosis as an adult. ADHD is not a problem to be solved. It is about learning and harnessing your strengths, enhancing them and bringing tools, skills and strategies to the table to assist achieving life goals. I value honesty, transparency and collaboration. I believe everyone can develop strong relationships, succeed at work, learn to handle emotions, impulses, frustrations and live their best life.

My role in therapy is to provide a space that is transparent, free of judgement and free of criticism to safely explore where you are, where you want to be, and whom you want to become. It is this sense of safety and trust that allows us to see ourselves clearly and allows us to break free from old subconscious habits and patterns making space to make conscious choices about our responses to triggers and situations. Many clients have described this experience as liberating and empowering, freeing them to grow and find meaning, purpose and fulfilment in life.

My counselling approach centres on respect and authenticity. My goal is to provide a safe therapeutic space for my clients - to offer support for whatever life is currently sending your way. I provide in-person counselling sessions in Joondalup, online via zoom and also phone counselling if that is your preference. I have past experience working with adults, young people and working with couples.

As a registered psychotherapist with a creative art therapy and pastoral background I work from a collaborative position of care, curiosity and empathy. I utilise a variety of approaches to match your specific goals and needs, facilitating understanding of your particular situation to overcome stuckness. One of the philosophies that resonates for me is, “The problem is the problem, the person is not the problem” (White & Epston, founders of Narrative therapy).

Life for all of us can be unpredictable and at times difficult to navigate. Experiencing change can lead to feelings of anxiety, stress or depression impacting your sense of purpose and general enjoyment of life. As a registered counsellor with over 15 years experience, I am committed to exploring together what works for you in your unique situation. My hope for you is that incremental shifts in your experience will lead to meaningful change in your life.
