Welcome to Professional Mental Fitness

Meet Jo Famularo

I have specialist training and am qualified in working with Addiction, Acquired Brain Injury and Mental Health. I am a Clinical Social Worker (MSW) with over 30 years experience working with children 9+, teens, adults, couples and families. I utilise a broad base of therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (Trauma Focused) Solution Focused, Reality Therapy, Psychodynamic, Motivational Interviewing and Client-Centered.

 

I am interested in virtual care engagement. Working with clients online, removes the struggle to engage face to face, this allows faster access to a counsellor and flexibility to a zoom or voice call to reduce anxiety in taking that first step in seeking counselling.

 

I provide ongoing virtual support to those working through life transitions (such as adjustment, grief and loss), mood disorders (such as depression) and anxiety disorders. I feel that clients can benefit from therapy, having a nonbiased, third party with whom they can process their feelings and stressors.

 

My treatment approach is collaborative and relational working with clients to discover the most helpful ways to discuss and solve their problems. I assist and support clients to re-discover their strengths, gain insight and to achieve healthy lasting changes.

 

I discover what works the best and quickest for the person I am helping which is usually a mixture of treatments. I have worked with a wide variety of clients that struggle with mental health trauma, mood disorders, personality disorder, anxiety, depression, anger management, behavioural problems, addiction, and relationship issues. I enjoy creating a welcoming environment and I am open to helping any person in need of professional mental fitness.

"I have been working with Jo for a year now & I have found our sessions to be extremely beneficial. Jo creates a very comfortable environment making conversation, with sometimes difficult subject matter a lot less daunting. My journey with Jo has enabled me to resolve numerous struggles I’ve had for myself and my family, providing me with the tools I need to navigate through challenges that I previously viewed as roadblocks. I would recommend Jo for anyone looking to maintain a healthy wellbeing."

I have referred a number of people to Jo over the past couple of years through my role in the Workplace Wellness space. She is a breath of fresh air in the psychology field. She has a breadth of theoretical knowledge coupled with a real desire to empower her clients. This means that her clients come away with an expanded toolkit to help them for the rest of their lives. I have no hesitation in recommending Jo to anyone seeking help to navigate life and mental health in any time of life.
