Hi, I’m Jemma Jo, a credentialed Social Worker and counselor in Australia with over six years of professional experience supporting individuals and families through life’s challenges.
My areas of expertise include working with LGBTQIA+ individuals, trauma survivors, domestic violence backgrounds, parenting issues, and those navigating focus and memory challenges, including ADHD.
As a neurodivergent individual, I bring a unique perspective to my practice, offering compassionate and informed support to neurodiverse individuals and families as they navigate the complexities of their experiences. My approach is rooted in creating a safe, open, and nonjudgmental environment where you can feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and feelings.
I understand that taking the first step toward therapy requires courage, and I am here to support you on this journey. Together, we can work toward your goals and create a path to healing, growth, and resilience. Thank you for considering me as a partner in your mental health journey—I’m proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
