Helping you find solid ground

Bendigo in-person plus online counselling & psychotherapy.

Relief from psychological pain begins with the act of being heard — telling your story in your words.

Welcome

Counsellor and narrative therapist Frederikke Jensen

Hello, I am Frederikke Jensen, a master's-qualified registered counsellor with an undergraduate in psychology.

I help people find resilience and agency in dealing with the underlying reasons for psychological pain.

What is your approach to therapy?

  • I use trauma-sensitive ways of working and relating based on knowledge about attachment and how early life shapes how we cope.

  • I am a narrative therapist using a psychodynamic approach helping people address the root cause of their problems.

  • We work as much in the here and now, gradually finding new possibilities.

  • An intention of curiosity in our work together, benefits your understanding of yourself and others, and how you relate to challenges.

  • Keep in mind, symptoms are only what we see on the surface. Problems like anxiety and depression cloak the underlying issues, such as deep emotional wounding growing up.

Who do you work with?

I work with adolescents from 15 years of age, adults, and older adults.

I work with people longer term on problems that might have deeper roots, where infrequent therapy has not made enough of a difference. I also see people who seek brief, intensive therapy to get through a difficult period in their lives.

Psychological and social problems I can help you with:

  • Relationships with family members, friends and partners or colleagues at work.

  • Anxiety, stress and occupational burnout.

  • Depression.

  • Complex Trauma.

  • Grief and loss.

Debriefing sessions for professionals:

With a background in trauma services as a supervisor and manager, I offer debriefing sessions for helping professionals after incidents at work that have a high emotional impact and potential to contribute to PTSD and occupational burnout.
