Everyone struggles with their mental health from time to time. Dealing with stress, trauma or navigating through life's difficulties can result in problems with emotions, thinking, and behaviour and impact relationships.  Seeking professional support can help set you on the path to understanding your experiences, healing, and finding a way to live your best life.

My Story
Jo Hallett
Registered Psychologist & Chartered Forensic Psychologist (BSc Psychology, MSc Forensic Psychology, CPsychol, NZPSs)
Originally from the UK where I trained as a Forensic Psychologist, I moved to NZ in 2008 to deliver group therapy in a Corrections setting. I have extensive experience in psychological assessment and therapy (1-1 & groups), risk assessment/management, professional supervision and training, and providing advisory and consultation services with multidisciplinary teams, including prison, probation and programme delivery staff.
​
I am trained in a range of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Schema Therapy, and mindfulness. My approach is collaborative, client-centered, and strengths-based with therapy tailored to suit individual needs.
​
I'm a strong believer in lifestyle balance, so when I'm not working, I like to be active, either hiking in the bush or by the ocean, or out in the garden.
