You're looking for a psychologist who is warm, curious and genuinely interested in understanding you, your experiences and what's important to you. Claudia may also be a particularly good fit if you're LGBTQIA+, trans, non-binary or gender diverse and would value working with a psychologist who has a specific clinical and research interest in LGBTQIA+ experiences and wellbeing. Importantly, you don't need to be seeking therapy because of your sexuality or gender identity. You may simply prefer working with a psychologist who brings this additional area of understanding while supporting you with anxiety, mood, relationships, neurodivergence or whatever else has brought you to therapy. Claudia's Approach Claudia believes that feeling genuinely comfortable with your psychologist is an important part of therapy. They are an eager listener and take time to understand each person's individual experiences, strengths and goals. Their approach is tailored to the individual and grounded in evidence-based practice. Claudia draws upon Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

Her therapeutic work is evidence-based and draws particularly upon Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and psychoeducation.

Cognitive & Educational Assessments Alongside her therapeutic work, Janine has particular expertise in cognitive and educational assessments for children and young people. An assessment may be helpful when a child is struggling academically, isn't progressing at school as expected, appears to learn differently from their peers, or when parents and educators would like a clearer understanding of their cognitive and learning strengths and areas where additional support may be helpful. The aim is to help families better understand how their child learns and provide meaningful information and recommendations that can help guide appropriate support. Clinical Supervision Janine is also a Board-Approved Supervisor and enjoys supporting provisional psychologists as they work towards registration.
