Hello, my name is Justine and I am a professional counsellor with over 28 years of experience helping individuals work through a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges.
I use an integrative approach to therapy, drawing primarily from Person-Centred Counselling and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). This allows me to tailor our work together to suit your unique needs—whether that means offering a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore your feelings, or providing practical strategies to manage difficult thoughts and behaviours.
I have extensive experience supporting clients with stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, eating disorders, low self-esteem, motivation issues, and life transitions. My practice is grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I am committed to walking alongside you with care and understanding.
Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage. I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward healing and personal growth.

Justine, from my first session, has provided me with so much insight and guidance.
I joined when I was at a very dark place and through my session, her experience definitely made a major impact- we uncovered patterns very quickly and stemming reasoning for my behaviour and thoughts.
I have attended therapy sessions using other channels, and I’d highly recommend this particular channel.

I’ve only just started therapy with Justine, but I feel like I am discovering things about myself and tools I need to move forward. I’m really grateful for the support and engagement that Justine brings. Her attention to detail and support after every journal entry makes it feel like I have someone in my corner supporting me whenever I need.
