Counselling in Fortitude Valley, QLD

SJ's approach is influenced by psychodynamic psychotherapy. From this framework, treatment is centred on illuminating the unconscious narratives that we all carry within ourselves, impressed upon us by our early experiences. We may find ourselves feeling stuck, indifferent, or overwhelmed, despite immense efforts to change, unaware of the repeating patterns within ourselves, and in our interactions with others. Through the exploration of the past and paying close attention to what arises in the present moment-to-moment interactions, we can come to embrace the entirety of our experience and transformation begins anew.

On the surface things look okay. But deeper down, they aren't. It's affecting your work and your relationships, and you're afraid you might lose them. This brings so much added stress and you don't know how to fix any of it. You try doing all the 'right things' but nothing seems to work. You want to understand what's going on, so that you can get back to living a life that you enjoy.

I am a psychologist and psychotherapist and I provide individual adult psychotherapy to persons over the age of 18. I assist people wanting change that is more focussed on deeper personal understanding rather than mere symptom relief.

Hi, I’m Rebecca (she/her). I’m a queer, disabled, neurodivergent provisional psychologist with a commitment to intersectional and affirming practice. I work primarily with neurodivergent folk, disabled/chronically ill folk, and LGBTQIA+ folk.
