Jennifer Beard

Registered Psychologist - North Sydney

Jenn is a Registered Psychologist who creates a safe and nurturing environment for her clients, where they can be themselves and discover the benefits of a therapeutic space. With over a decade of experience in clinical work, group facilitation and educational settings, Jenn has also completed a post graduate diploma in Relationship Counselling and Systems Therapy, and has a background working within neurodiverse families.

Jenn has a strong curiosity about generational patterns, and the attachment styles which can impact our ability to communicate effectively, meet our needs and parent our children. Drawing upon strategies and concepts from acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, attachment theories and systems-focused frameworks, Jenn seeks to find an individualised pathway to support her clients in their areas of difficulty.

Most recently, Jenn has been working as a parent educator, facilitating multiple parent programs including: Circle of Security, Bringing up Great Kids, Tuning into Kids/Teens and Emotion Coaching. The aim of these groups is to support clients in understanding child development, learning about their emotions, developing greater resilience, and increasing communication skills within relationships.  

Jenn has a passion for supporting parents at all stages - from pregnancy beyond - through inviting reflective growth, self-compassion and learning in a non-judgemental environment. In her own time, she is a mother to three little people, and enjoys finding moments in nature where she can. Jenn strongly believes it is possible for all people to thrive in the perinatal phase with the right support.
