Janine’s approach is warm, positive and non-judgemental; she enjoys working with people to help them understand their thoughts, feelings and behaviours.   It can be a be a big decision to come and talk to a psychologist, and her first priority is to make sure you feel comfortable and secure to talk about … whatever you need to.

She is passionate about working collaboratively with you to choose the right treatment strategies and supports for you, to help you reach your own goals and achieve outcomes that are meaningful to you.
