Hi, I'm Jeanette

I have been practicing psychotherapy for over 10 years and started my own private practice Gold Coast Psychotherapy in 2019 with one employee - me! And that’s how it still is today. I have worn many hats before becoming a psychotherapist. I have owned my own native plant nursery as a horticulturalist and still love plants, spending time in the garden is my creative escape and a place to unplug from the world. I then worked in mining for over ten years starting in the laboratory before mixing in with the guys in the mill, crusher and gold room. During this time I furthered my studies in Health and Safety and became an emergency medical first responder (paramedic).

Medical and safety is where I spent the last few years of my mining career. Then a traumatic event in my own life led me to seek therapy for myself. A friend recommended an fantastic therapist to me who practiced Process Orientated Psychology. After about a year of therapy I decided my time in mining was done and I began to study Process Orientated Psychology (process work) for myself. While i've enjoyed the many different hats I have worn, process work has personally been the most rewarding. Helping clients navigate their experiences, form an understanding that offers insight, and ultimately leads to resolution and a new perspective is truly satisfying work. I feel very privileged to facilitate and hold a space for mental health, healing and wellness.
