Mrs Jodie Cox

Registered Counselor

Verified

“I support both youth and adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or stretched thin, helping them make sense of what’s going on in their work and personal life particularly in employment and discovering a clear path. Through practical, down‑to‑earth counselling, I guide people toward clarity, confidence, and realistic steps forward.”

About Me

I’ve spent almost three decades working alongside people in the care and community sector in both hands-on and senior leadership roles, and that experience has shaped the way I support clients today, with honesty, steadiness, and a genuinely human approach. I’m a counsellor who believes in practical guidance, clear conversation, and helping people untangle the thoughts and pressures that make life feel heavy.

Approach

I work with young people and adults who feel overwhelmed, are dealing with workplace stress or burnout, going through life changes, or simply feel stuck. My role isn’t to change who you are, but to help you quiet the noise, make sense of what’s happening, and find a clearer way forward. I’m down-to-earth, easy to talk to, and will gently challenge the patterns that may be holding you back.
