Hi, I’m Jaz. A Clinical Counsellor offering trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and neuro affirming support for adults across Australia.
I work with folks navigating mental health, existential anxiety, complex trauma, sexual assault, domestic violence, post traumatic stress, systemic harm, identity exploration, grief, family estrangement/enmeshment, substance use, and burnout. My approach is compassionate and tailored to your unique needs grounded in holding that healing happens through meaningful connection and change. I believe in meeting you where you are at, and building a space where you feel safe, seen, and empowered.
When the world feels uncertain or dehumanising, I offer a space to make meaning of your experiences, reconnect with your own voice, and cultivate a life that feels meaningful, values led, and your own.
Now welcoming new clients for ongoing counselling. I also welcome referrals through the Victims of Crime Financial Assistance Scheme (including Interim Counselling), along with other funded pathways.
Contact today to book a discovery call or schedule directly through our website - I look forward to connecting with you.
