Jenny Walker is a qualified social worker credentialed in Australia with more than four years of professional experience supporting individuals and families through stress, family conflict, trauma, grief, and loss. With a background in child protection, family support, and therapeutic work, she is experienced in guiding people through difficult life transitions and the effects of trauma and emotional abuse. Jenny has worked with a broad range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship and parenting difficulties, career challenges, and ADHD, and she tailors her approach to the needs of each person she consults with.

Her practice is compassionate and collaborative, centring on the belief that each person knows their own life best. Jenny helps clients recognise strengths and build practical tools to manage challenges, drawing on strength-based, trauma-informed, and solution-focused techniques that are adapted to individual circumstances. She holds the AASW credential - membership with the Australian Association of Social Workers - reflecting her professional standing within Australia.

Seeking support can be a difficult step, and Jenny aims to offer steady guidance and practical strategies to promote balance and well-being. She works alongside clients to explore experiences, set realistic goals, and develop sustainable changes that fit their lives.

Evidence-informed approaches delivered through online therapy

Jenny integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into online work to help clients learn to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and to take values-based actions that move their lives forward. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, avoidance patterns, and coping with change.

Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore relational patterns that stem from early caregiving relationships and current bonds, helping people address intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and family dynamics. This approach supports rebuilding trust and improving communication in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jenny collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She listens to client priorities and adapts techniques so therapy feels relevant and workable.

Online sessions offer flexibility - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow people to access consistent support around work, family, or mobility constraints. These options make it easier to maintain momentum between sessions and to choose the format that best suits practical circumstances and personal style.
