About Me

Rebekah Jones

Bachelor Psychological Studies, Master of Counselling

I am a qualified counsellor registered with the Australian Counselling Association (ACA).  I work from a person centred approach but am also trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).  I have also studied Specialist Course in Integrative Couples Therapy with Relationships Australia.  I specialise in working with AOD, trauma, adolescents and families, ADHD and to aid in support through anxiety and depression.  

 

A great deal of my work experiences have been in the social services and include family violence, young people with a history of trauma and neglect, an AOD rehab facility, forensic AOD and youth AOD.  I have also spent time as a secondary college school counsellor and facilitating group therapy.

 

I have a particular interest in working with families and couples, particularly young people, helping you communicate with each other, supporting each other and overcoming unhelpful patterns to be your best.

 

I believe that you are the expert in your own life and I am here to help you find the answers from within you.

 

I am available for face to face sessions and Zoom consults.

I am a mother of 3 children.  2 boys in their 20's and a daughter at primary school.  I am happily married and have just moved to The Dandenongs of Melbourne.  I have 2 cats and a dog and I enjoy reading, tending to my many plants and turning our little house into our forever home.


I have personal experience with divorce, mental illness and raising children, including one with ADHD.  Before becoming a counsellor I was a Remedial Massage Therapist and have always had a strong drive to help people.

You never change your life until you step out of your comfort zone; change begins at the end of your comfort zone.
