About Juliette
I have been a Mental Health OT for almost a decade and I am seriously passionate about my work. I understand firsthand the challenges of navigating mental health struggles during pregnancy and the postnatal period. As a mental health clinician who has personally experienced the isolation of postnatal anxiety, rage and depression after a traumatic birth, I realised the profound impact of seeking help early.

In your first session, the clinician will ask you some questions to understand your current situation and what assistance and treatment may be beneficial for you. This might include topics like:
What is currently challenging for you – mood, sleep, eating patterns, behaviours, thoughts, relationships
Your mental health history
Who your family and current social supports
Your living situation
Your clinician may also ask you to complete some assessments to assess your mental health. You will develop a treatment plan together and subsequent sessions will be spent working together on your goals.
