Though rarely easy, therapy requires clients to be brave, bold and willing to be vulnerable: I provide a safe and confidential space for therapeutic work which is life-changing and therefore a worthwhile personal investment. Psychotherapy is offered exclusively to adolescent and adult patients, with the option of individual and group sessions. My therapeutic approach is holistic and informed by psychodynamic approach, however, other modalities are used in specific cases where they are identified to be the best treatment.

I am a registered Neuropsychologist. I assist clients seeking clarity about how they or their child think, learn, and cope. This may be a parent concerned about a child’s learning, a young person struggling at school, or an adult noticing changes in memory, focus, or mood. For most individuals the crux of the matter is gaining understanding - why challenges are happening, what strengths they have, and how to move forward.

Hello, I'm Jodie! You might be coping on the outside while feeling overwhelmed on the inside. Life can feel heavy, uncertain or demanding, and it can be difficult to make sense of everything being carried, especially when expectations continue to pile up. Anxiety, low mood, stress, grief, or significant life changes such as shifts in relationships, work, identity, or relocating can quietly add to this sense of strain. What is often needed is a space to slow down, speak openly, and feel understood without judgement, alongside support that helps bring clarity, steadiness, and a clearer way forward.

People often seem to feel overwhelmed by life’s expectations—high-functioning yet disconnected, thoughtful yet exhausted. They may struggle with burnout, ADHD, anxiety, depression or relationship strain and long to feel more authentic, grounded, and understood. They want to slow down, make sense of emotional patterns, and live with greater meaning, balance, and self-acceptance.

I believe that every child can learn and should have every opportunity to learn. These opportunities should not just be what our education system offers. Children learn in different ways and I see it as part of my expertise to find ways to help our children learn and develop. I love working with children of all ages. I feel that teens and young adults are often misunderstood and I want to be there for them. We need to find the hope and light within each person and sometimes, we even need to show them what they have within themselves.

I strive to help each client develop self-understanding and to make changes in their life. Change happens in life, but we are not always equipped with the tools to adapt to change. These change may have taken place in childhoods, adolescence or adulthood. It may have been a gradual or sudden change. I help my clients to adapt to their 'new normal' without judgement. “When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.” Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning.

When should someone seek treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
People should seek a diagnosis and treatment after a head injury, especially if they were unconscious, and an early diagnosis can lead to a better recovery. Signs of a concussion include headaches, nausea or vomiting, exhaustion, dizziness, vision problems, sensitivity to light and sound, problems with attention and memory, brain fog, unusual irritability or sadness, and unusual sleep patterns.

What’s the most common treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
Treatment for a traumatic brain injury will be different depending on the severity of the problem. For mild injuries, treatment may involve rest and over-the-counter pain or headache medication. For moderate or severe injuries, treatment may involve stabilisation, medication, and rehabilitative therapies such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, cognitive therapy, and counselling.

How long does it take to recover from traumatic brain injury?
The recovery time for a traumatic brain injury depends on the individual and the severity and nature of the injury; the length of time spent unconscious is often an indicator of severity. Recovery time for mild injuries may be a week or two while recovery time for more severe injuries may be six months to two years. Research suggests that the vast majority of recovery occurs in the first two years after an injury; recovery after that time frame is less certain.

What if a traumatic brain injury is left untreated?
If a traumatic brain injury is left untreated, it can lead to long-term physical and mental health problems. Physical problems may include dizziness, headaches, vision, healing, or speech loss, and an elevated risk of dementia. Psychological problems may include impairments of memory, judgment, and decision-making, depression, aggression, poor impulse control, and personality changes.
