Hi, I'm Jo

I’m a Master’s qualified counsellor and Level 2 member of the Australian Counselling Association, providing evidence-informed therapeutic support for adolescents and adults.

I support people who feel overwhelmed, stretched, or not quite themselves—helping them build practical strategies to navigate life with more clarity and confidence.

About my work

I work with people experiencing a range of challenges, including:

  • Depression and low mood

  • Anxiety and overthinking

  • Trauma and emotional overwhelm

  • Life transitions and periods of change

  • Personal growth and self-understanding

You don’t need a specific label or clear reason to start—if something feels difficult to manage, that’s enough.

I welcome NDIS self-managed and plan-managed participants seeking counselling support.

My approach

My approach is warm, practical, and down-to-earth.

Sessions are guided by your needs and focus on building practical skills that support emotional regulation, self-understanding, and day-to-day functioning.

We might explore what’s going on, look at patterns, process emotions, and develop strategies to help you feel steadier and in control.

My work is trauma-informed, and I am currently undertaking further training in complex trauma.

About me

I’m a Kalgoorlie local and have lived here my whole life. I’m proud to offer counselling in Kalgoorlie and telehealth support across Australia.

Living and working in a regional community, I understand the unique challenges people face—limited access to services, isolation, and the need for flexible, accessible support.

I value genuine connection and creating a space where people feel comfortable being themselves.

You can come as you are—there’s no need to have everything figured out before starting.

What you can expect

A space that is:

  • Calm and supportive

  • Focused on what matters to you

  • Steady, paced, and respectful of where you’re at

  • Oriented toward building practical tools you can use in everyday life

NDIS Counselling Support

Grounded Moments Counselling provides therapeutic, capacity-building support for NDIS participants, helping adolescents and adults develop practical skills to improve emotional wellbeing, relationships, and daily functioning.

How I Support Participants

Sessions focus on building:

  • Emotional regulation and coping strategies

  • Anxiety and stress management

  • Self-awareness and confidence

  • Communication and relationship skills

  • Capacity to manage everyday challenges

All supports are tailored to align with each participant’s NDIS goals and functional needs.

Services are delivered under:
