My name is Janelle and I'm a registered counselling psychologist. Born and raised in New Zealand, I whakapapa back to Waitakere in Auckland. I have lived most of my life in Auckland and completed my psychologist accreditation in 2019. Since then I have worked in Auckland, Melbourne and online proving therapeutic support. 

I've worked in a variety of settings across the two countries, with experience working alongside people from all walks of life and many formats with families, couples and individuals. I take pride in holding an empathetic and nurturing space for clients to explore and navigate mental health concerns that may new or well known to them. 

My speciality areas are anxiety, low mood, phobias, social anxiety and interpersonal skills building. I work from a person centred philosophy of care, thus allowing room to work alongside persons of diverse backgrounds and abilities with diverse techniques and skills to provide quality care wherever you start your journey. 

I'm a firm believer in meeting people where they are, with the tapestry of their lives woven intricately as they have progressed and allowing the next threads to be woven in a way that best serves them on the next stages of their journey.
