About Jade
As a child Jade always knew
she was a bit different.
She always felt things deeply, she could see other’s invisible wounds beneath the surface and had a strong desire to ease others' pain.
Jade was bullied for being different but even at a young age, she was always curious about what was going on for the bullies, that meant they would behave in this way and cause pain to another, which at the time was her.
It’s not really surprising that she followed an education and a career in psychology, to better understand others, to better understand herself so that she could be best equipped to help people feel good about themselves from the inside out.
Jade has always been deeply passionate about learning and understanding people.
Over the years Jade has worked with children, adults and families and what became so clear was that everyone she worked with, no matter the service, they were carrying not only the wounds of their childhood, but the wounds of the many generations that came before them…
And she knew there and then,
that she was committed to helping break this cycle.
After many, many years of training and experience she finally became a fully qualified Clinical Psychologist
- and she felt so full of pride, knowing that she was going to help so many more people and families!
Then in 2018, when she decided to start a family of her own, she was so excited and felt confident in her abilities to be the best mum possible…
dedicated, passionate, determined, compassionate and knowledgeable about kids.
She couldn’t believe how hard she found adjusting to motherhood and parenting, despite on the outside looking like she had it all together (but on the inside she felt like she was drowning!)
Triggered by her own children, activating parts of herself that she never even knew existed before having kids!
And this is where she started her own journey
of compassionate discovery and learning new skills for herself and for those parents she now supports.
She developed her skills to help parents and families from the inside out - knowing that we cannot pour out what we do not pour in. And we cannot better understand our kids, without being open to better understanding ourselves.
She loves what
she does so much
because it makes such a difference!
To see the joy on a child’s face and a mother’s heart melt with love and confidence knowing that they have created the strongest bond and most loving relationship that will last way beyond our lifetime -
is both a gift and an absolute privilege to help parents with.

Dr Jade Redfern
BSc(Hons). PGDip. DClinPsy
Founder & Clinical Psychologist
-
I am extremely passionate about providing effective clinical psychology services and I genuinely love my job. I enjoy connecting with people and enabling them to thrive from difficult life experiences, to enjoy life to the fullest. I feel incredibly lucky to help so many people, from so many walks of life.
-
I work across the lifespan with people who experience a range of mild to severe difficulties, including anxiety, OCD, trauma, low mood and depression. I have a keen interest in working holistically with the mind and body, combining both psychological interventions with body-based exercises, such as yoga, physical exercise and getting outdoors.
-
Using a collaborative approach, the main psychological models I use in therapy are EMDR and Cognitive Behavioural Therapies (CBT) – including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT).
I provide an individualized treatment plan to suit your needs and interests. During therapy you will discover new insights about yourself, others and the world around you. You will create a bespoke ‘toolbox’ of strategies for you to use in between sessions and for the rest of your life. These will help you stay on track and enable you to keep striving for what you want and to manage difficult thoughts and feelings that may arise along the way.
