Jenny Atkins Psychologist

Hi, I’m Jenny, a registered psychologist and clinical psychology registrar here at Psyche Mental Health Centre. I completed my Master of Psychology (Clinical) at the University of Tasmania and am now working clinically as a psychologist whilst also undertaking a PhD. Before moving to Tassie to complete my studies, I gained over 10 years’ experience working in the both the mental health and disability sectors across Australia, New Zealand and the UK.

 

My therapeutic style is warm, supportive, and genuine. I aim to create a non-judgemental and relaxed space in which you feel listened to, understood and where we are able to work together to you achieve your goals. I like to ensure sessions are tailored to your individual needs and use a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I enjoy working with adults experiencing anxiety, low mood, stress, adjustment to life changes (e.g., relationships, work, relocation, and injury), grief and loss, as well as those living with chronic health conditions/disease.

When I am not working, you can most likely find me hiking or camping in the beautiful outdoors of Tassie, travelling, or in the pottery studio making lots of slightly wonky pots!
