HELLO, I’M JODIE!
AUTHOR-PSYCHOLOGIST & CREATOR OF MINDFUL ROMANCE
I WRITE THE STORIES THAT BRING YOU BACK TO YOURSELF
Self-doubt does not mean there’s something wrong. It means we’re being invited to listen in and trust ourselves more.
Mindful Romance is the invitation in: Stories that map our own becoming, paired with a ritual that bridges the story world and our own inner world.
The outcome? Deep Self-Trust. The clarity and confidence to trust what comes up within, and know we're the author of our own becoming.
The book ends. You begin.
THE PSYCHOLOGY BEHIND THE STORIES
Here's the psychology behind the books.
A compassionate, evidence-based model called Internal Family Systems (IFS) sits at the heart of my work.
IFS helps us understand the different ‘parts’ of us, the ones trying to protect us, the ones holding onto hurt, and the calm, wise Self at our very centre.
This model transformed my own life, which is why I weave it into my fiction.
Whether through my novels or online IFS therapy and coaching, my goal is to help you to turn self-doubt into DeepSelf-Trust and be the author of your own becoming.
EXPERIENCE THAT GUIDES MY WORK
I'm a registered psychologist (AHPRA) and IFS-trained practitioner with 20+ years of experience supporting families, teens and communities.
I've spoken at TEDx, chaired a school board, and spent years in private practice, all of which taught me that the inner world is where everything begins, and where everything can change.
I live in Adelaide on Kaurna land with my husband, two kids, two cats, and views to the hills. When I'm not writing or seeing clients, I'm reading, sipping tea, eating dark chocolate or walking in the national park near my home, usually dreaming up the next story.
