Hello, I'm Janelle.

I am a Brisbane-based Family Therapist offering counselling for families who are seeking professional guidance and support during challenging situations and life struggles.

After 20 years of practice both in Brisbane and rural Queensland, I specialise in relationship therapy, as well as counselling for families where neurodiversity or other developmental and behavioural issues have been recognised. 

In a constructive and non-judgmental environment, each individual is heard, validated, and invited to explore new ideas and responses that will alleviate relationship problems and encourage positive change and personal growth.

“Offering an integrative approach that draws on diverse schools of therapy and other wellness modalities, I coach couples, families and individuals who want to co-create a more harmonious experience of their lives and relationships.”
