About 

Janets practice is located in a private residence within the Perth suburb of Burswood in Western Australia.

You are asked to wait until your scheduled appointment time before entering the premises, as this protects your privacy from other clients who may be leaving. There is a beautiful park five minutes walk away on Burswood Road, where there are restrooms, and seats overlooking the  tranquil bird sanctuary. This can be a perfect transitional space to ease in and out of your daily life prior to the appoinment. Or you can park outside the premises.

Therapy and counselling appointments are for fifty minutes and during this time you are assured a calm, focused and distraction-free environment. The intention is to understand you and your concerns so we can work collaboratively to assist a satisfying transition into a preferred life.
