Michelle Jackson

Michelle Jackson is a highly regarded and qualified counsellor who has been in practice for over 30 years. Michelle works with children, adolescents, adults and families presenting across a wide range of presenting concerns. Alongside her practice, Michelle has worked in a wide range of settings supporting clients in challenging circumstances, as well as providing clinical supervision to other counsellors.  

Michelle has been described by her many clients as very professional, non-judgemental, and compassionate. Her wealth of skills and knowledge around personal and psychological issues has been of great benefit to the many people she has worked with. She has an expectation to offer a conversation that leaves clients feeling like they have been heard and validated, but also that there has been a shift in their thinking about the problem, giving them possibilities and hope. Clients will walk out having had a different sort of conversation than they may have received in previous more traditional therapy that is more helpful and sustaining.

Michelle has had extensive training in many therapy modalities over her career, particularly informed by Narrative Therapy. She has a commitment to regular training and keeping up to date with recent advances in mental health care. Michelle has always had a very deep passion for work and deeply enjoys working with clients as they navigate the challenges they have face and work to remain on track with their preferred life.
