Perinatal Psychologist
BPsych (Hons) MHealth (Peri&InfMH) MAPS

Jenni is a psychologist who has spent many years supporting individuals, children, and families, and she has recently made the exciting transition from public mental health to private practice. Her passion lies in the psychological care of individuals, couples, infants and young children through the unpredictable, challenging and joyful journey of building a family. With specific training, and a Masters in Health – Perinatal and Infant Mental Health, Jenni is dedicated to providing support during perinatal anxiety and depression, transitions to parenthood, and the nurturing of the parent-child relationship. She also focuses on supporting relationships during this critical time, providing support for birth trauma recovery, infertility care, and those who experience perinatal loss.

Jenni recognizes that every family is beautifully unique, and she is committed to offering compassionate care to a diverse range of clients, including the LGBTQAI+ community, single parents by choice, surrogates and their partners, intended parents, adoptive parents, and caregivers in permanent, kinship, or foster care.

Her commitment to this work is deeply personal and at the heart of Jenni’s practice are values of compassion, respect, openness, and non-judgment. She is committed to delivering evidence-based care tailored to each client’s unique needs, drawing from a range of therapeutic approaches, including Attachment theory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, and Schema Therapy. Jenni creates a safe, supportive environment where clients feel held, safe, seen and empowered.
