Hello, I’m Janine, the founder of Healing Hearts, Counselling for Emotional Wellness. My path into this work is deeply personal. Through my own experiences with grief, trauma, and life transition, I came to understand how powerful it can be to have someone walk beside you with patience, compassion, and unwavering steadiness. That understanding is at the heart of the way I support my clients today.
I hold a qualification as a Counselling Practitioner and have spent many years working in community and aged care services. This has given me a strong foundation in understanding people’s emotional needs, especially those facing complex life challenges, loss, ageing, and periods of significant change.
My counselling style is gentle, grounded and client-led. I offer a calm space where you will never feel rushed or judged. Together, we work at your pace, exploring your emotions, finding clarity, and reconnecting with the strengths and resilience you already carry within you.
Whether you are grieving, adjusting to loss, navigating a major life transition, or supporting an ageing loved one, my role is to help you feel seen, heard, and supported as you find your way forward.
