Joelle will be on extended leave from June 2024 and is not currently taking new referrals. Getting to hear and know my clients’ stories is an incredible privilege. I see therapy as a partnership, where we work as a team to get you to where you want to be. Offering my clients hope and restoration even in the midst of the most difficult seasons is one of my greatest joys. I have worked in hospital inpatient and community settings, universities and in various private practice settings.

I am a Clinical Psychologist working Mondays and Fridays, who is passionate in creating a welcoming and non-judgmental space. I see people of all ages and backgrounds. My interests lie in trauma-informed therapy and focusing on how childhood experiences may have shaped my clients into who they are today.

If you are motivated to improve your mental wellbeing, I am ready to help and guide you on your journey.

Are you looking for an integrative, trauma-informed practitioner in which to explore your inner world? Would you like to learn how to cope more effectively when challenges arise? Hi, I'm Jocelyn, a Certified Practicing Counsellor from Byron Bay, Australia. Clients often come to me overwhelmed, stuck and lost. Often when we have been hurt we adopt ways of coping that put quite simply, are not aligned with our true nature. No matter what you have endured, there is a part of you that remains intact and unbroken. To work with me is to access those parts, reclaim your power, and remember who you really are.

I believe the goal of a psychologist is to provide insight and understanding into the hidden parts of the self. My intention is to support my clients to develop their understanding of themselves, to learn the skills to persevere independently, and to heal themselves. We are not meant to be alone; we need other people to help us meet our needs, but sometimes we are not designed to exist alone. We need other people to help us meet our needs, but sometimes we are not given this opportunity early in life. As a psychologist, I feel that my responsibility is to demonstrate healthy relational skills and to foster self-directed change.

When lingering or reoccurring issues arise they create within us a dissatisfaction about life and how we feel about ourselves. Issues such as relationship difficulties, addictions, career, life transitions, parenting, depression, anxiety, stress, body image, negative beliefs and thoughts, emotional overwhelm, aggression, low energy, impulsivity etc. can affect your self esteem and your ability to think clearly and solve problems effectively. Learning new skills, building on resilience and resources and dealing with past issues that affect your present life can be empowering and create satisfaction and fulfilment in your life.

Hi, I am Amanda (she/her), shamelessly human first, therapist second. I enjoy bringing both of our humanness to the therapy space, where you can colour outside the lines and express the messiness of being human with no judgement. I am down-to-earth, warm, and genuine, where I aim to empower you to tell your story, as we explore and clarify how you show up in your everyday life. Collaboratively, we will deeply delve into the roots and patterns of habits, behaviours, and mechanisms to gain a deep understanding of ‘why you are who you are’ and ‘why you do the things you do’.

My name is Jamie and I have supported children, young people, adults, foster and kinship carers in the therapeutic space for over 10 years. Sessions are guided by your needs and what feels most safe for you to explore at any given time. I am there to act as a guide to support you on your healing journey. As a mother of two little ones, I understand the challenges and fulfillment we experience as parents. I am deeply passionate about supporting parents, foster, and kinship carers to navigate the complexities of fostering, parenthood as well as preparing for birth and beyond.

Like a flower, we bloom in the right environment; in the play therapy room I work with empathy and acceptance to create a safe space for children and families in order for them to work through their issues and “grow”. I recognise the importance of family and offer assistance to parents and carers to work towards a safer, happier and more relaxed home environment in a strength-based way. Child-centred Play Therapy is a gentle, trauma-informed and neuro-affirming way of supporting children in their unique reactions to coping with daily life, big life events or trauma and attachment issues.
