TESTIMONIALS
"Jenny has been an invaluable resource to [our company providing EAP counselling for the past 2+ years], providing life-changing mental health support in our region where access to such services is often limited. Her unwavering dedication, genuine compassion, and innovative approach to counselling...Jenny has become an integral part of our team, offering guidance, comfort, and a safe space for those in need. She does not simply provide counselling; she builds trust, listens without judgment, and ensures that each person feels heard and valued. I have complete confidence in referring staff to her, knowing they will receive the highest level of professional care. Her impact has been profound – helping employees navigate stress, trauma, grief, and personal crises that might have otherwise gone unnoticed or unaddressed. In one instance, her timely intervention prevented a staff member from reaching a breaking point, offering them a pathway to recovery that they might not have otherwise pursued. Jenny remains unwavering in her mission to help others. She is incredibly generous with her time and energy, often going above and beyond what is expected of her role. Jenny takes time to create informative and engaging mental health resources for our staff each month, providing education on topics that are often overlooked, such as resilience around the cyclone and flooding disasters, anxiety management, and workplace well-being – just to name a few. Her ability to communicate complex issues in an accessible and meaningful way has helped shift the culture around mental health in our organisation, encouraging more open discussions and reducing stigma. These resources have proven invaluable in empowering individuals to seek help before their struggles escalate into crises. Port Douglas, like many remote communities, suffers from a lack of accessible mental health services, and the consequences of this gap can be devastating. Many individuals suffer in silence, with few avenues for support. Jenny works tirelessly to address this disparity, not only through her direct counselling work but also through her advocacy and outreach. She understands the unique challenges faced by people in our region and continuously seeks ways to provide better, more effective support. Her adaptability demonstrates her innovative approach to ensuring that help reaches those who need it most." S.P. (HR Manager) April 2025
"I have observed firsthand the extraordinary dedication and expertise Jenny brings to her work as a Counsellor in Douglas Shire and surrounds. In a field where the challenges of accessibility, resources, and community support are often amplified, Jenny has consistently gone above and beyond to ensure the wellbeing of her clients. Through her work, Jenny has demonstrated a profound commitment to providing high-quality, compassionate care to individuals who might otherwise struggle to access health services due to geographical isolation. Jenny’s approach to counselling is holistic, respectful, and deeply rooted in understanding the unique challenges faced by those living in regional, rural, and remote areas. She has worked tirelessly to bridge the gap in services and create a safe, supportive environment for all individuals, regardless of their background or circumstances. Her work has not only been transformative for clients, but has also contributed positively to the wider community, fostering an environment of growth and resilience. Beyond her clinical expertise, Jenny...regularly engages with other local service providers and stakeholders, sharing resources, offering support, and working collaboratively to ensure that mental health services are available and effective in the region."

"Dear Jenny, You spend so much time caring for others, offering our community the very best of you. Throughout our community, your care and support do not go unnoticed. I know for me, my world/life is so much better having your support" - January 2025
"Dear Jenny, I just wanted to thank you for all your help, understanding, guidance + compassion through all of this and the extra time spent & extra mile you go to. Hopefully we can start to move forward in the new year with some healing now the law stuff is done. Thanks again" - P.S. (December 2024)
"Dear Jenny, I want to take this opportunity to deeply thank you for all that you have done for not just me but my partner too.
The last 5 years have been the most difficult of my life. The outcome of this last year is not just life changing for us but also our future family. Without your support & advice, I am certain that I/we would not have made it through & our lives would look very different. I want to thank you not just for your constant belief & encouragement & support, But for your flexibility taking time even out of hours to talk & even reducing or waiving fees. This is above & beyond. I can only imagine your job must be challenging & have dark days, even juggling your own personal life. I want you to know today, you DO make a difference. You change the outcome of lives. Thank you." - S.A. (December 2024)
