Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and patterns that get in the way of living a meaningful life.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current patterns of connection and trust, and supports people in developing healthier ways of relating in intimate and family relationships.

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a non-judgemental, empathetic relationship in which the client leads the pace and direction of change, which can be helpful for grief, low self-esteem and navigating major life transitions.

Jenny works collaboratively with each person to identify which approach or combination of approaches best fits their needs, goals and preferences. Finding the right therapeutic fit is part of the process, and the therapist will work with the client to adjust methods as understanding deepens.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people juggling work, family and other commitments. These options make it easier to maintain consistency in therapy, access support from different locations across Australia, and choose the mode of communication that feels most comfortable.
