Welcome to
Alignment Psychology
Psychological support for anxiety, burnout and life transitions
When life feels full - but not quite fulfilling
You may appear to be coping on the outside while privately carrying stress, anxiety, self-doubt or emotional exhaustion.
Perhaps you're constantly managing responsibilities, supporting others, meeting expectations or navigating a significant life transition. Over time, the pressure can leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or uncertain about what comes next.
Therapy offers a space to pause, reflect and better understand the patterns shaping your experiences. Together, we explore practical strategies and deeper insights that support lasting emotional wellbeing and meaningful change.

Registered Psychologist | 20+ years’ experience
AHPRA & APS Member | Medicare, DVA & WorkCover Provider
With over 20 years of experience as a registered psychologist and a background in health psychology, Jacqueline provides thoughtful, evidence-based support for professionals, women in midlife, and Year 12 and university students navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, perfectionism and significant life transitions.

Her approach combines evidence-based psychological care with genuine warmth and collaboration, helping clients build greater self-awareness, resilience and confidence while reconnecting with what matters most to them.
Appointments are available in person in Eltham and Templestowe, as well as via Telehealth across Australia.
