About Janelle

I was born and have spent most of my life in Perth, Western Australia, a place that I love, although I am fortunate to also have lived in other places.

I am a Clinical and Counselling Psychologist and I feel very greatful to have a career in an area that fits my interests and areas of strength so well. It has meant that I go to work every day with enthusiasm and the confidence that I'll learn something I didn't know yesterday.

In 2014, in the initial stages of my deep dive into researching ADHD and HSPs,  I realised that I am an HSP with many ADHD traits. More than a decade later, I continue to work to understand what this means for me and about me, living, as we do, in a mainly neurotypical world.

Away from my work, I am a partner, a mum to three adult children, and a dog-mum to Alfred. I divide my non-work time between being with my family, reimagining and recreating my small garden, and spending time on the Swan River with some amazing friends, usually in the early hours of the day.
