Jonine has worked with clients of all ages and has worked both in school settings and in the public mental health sector with children, adolescents and families for over 20 years in New Zealand and Australia. ​ Jonine has an interest in PTSD and the use of EMDR (Eye Movement, Desensitisation and Reprocessing) as a simple and quick method of assisting people to heal after a single traumatic event (such as workplace accident or motor vehicle accident), or ongoing trauma (such as childhood neglect, family violence or workplace bullying). However, EMDR can be used with individuals who have depression, anxiety, anger, relationship problems, and more. Jonine is particularly interested in working with parents who have children experiencing difficulties. Additionally, Jonine offers a Christian Counselling focus for those who wish to include their faith in their recovery.
