Hello, I’m Jodie!

Author, Psychologist & Coach

I’m passionate about helping people reconnect with their inner wisdom, whether that’s through the stories I write or the coaching I offer.

Over the years, I’ve worked in psychology private practice, parenting support, organisational consulting, academic research, and served as Chair of the Board at an Independent School.

These experiences have shaped my deep belief in our capacity to grow, heal, and find clarity β€” even in the messiest parts of life.

As a writer, I create young adult contemporary fiction that explores love, friendship, family and emotional healing. My stories are filled with big feelings, deep connections, and characters who are learning to navigate their inner and outer worlds β€” just like all of us.

As a coach, I work with school leaders who want more than surface solutions. They’re ready to understand what’s driving their challenges and grow from the inside out. With psychological insight and real-world experience, I help leaders expand their capacity and lead with clarity, confidence, and impact.

When I’m not writing or coaching, you’ll find me reading a great book, sipping tea, enjoying dark chocolate, or walking in the national park near my home.

Transformational coaching for school leaders & educators

With a Registered Psychologist

Grounded in Internal Family Systems

You care deeply about your students, your staff, and your school community. But the weight of responsibility can quietly drain your energy, cloud your clarity, and stretch your capacity.

  • Maybe the emotional load you’re carrying for others is eroding your impactβ€”and taking the fulfilment out of work you love

  • Maybe you’re constantly β€˜on’ with little time to slow down and reflect

  • Maybe you feel there’s a better way to leadβ€”calmer, clearer, more groundedβ€”but don’t know where to start

This isn’t about pushing through or doing more. It’s about developing the inner strength and insight to lead in a way that truly sustains you.

IFS coaching offers a space to reconnect with your internal clarity, build emotional resilience, and lead from a place that feels steady, spacious, and purposeful.
