Dear Parent,

Does your child need help with any personal or academic challenges?

I can help with many different issues, including:

  • Emotional issues, such as anxiety, depression, anger management, relaxation and stress management
  • Learning disabilities, such as dyslexia and other specific learning disorders
  • Intellectual issues, such as assessing giftedness, applying for special needs funding or special consideration
  • Social issues, such as friendship problems, bullying and relationship difficulties
  • Thinking skills - critical thinking, problem analysis and creative solutions
  • Study skills - techniques and strategies for improved learning and study
  • And more...

My name is Deborah Jepsen. I'm an experienced Educational & Developmental Psychologist and the principal psychologist at School Psychology Services, located in Port Melbourne, Australia.

The two main services we offer are:

  1. educational assessment; and
  2. practical, solution-focused counselling.

About Counselling

Counselling helps your child to discuss, explore and manage important emotional, social and educational issues, such as:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Anger management
  • Friendship issues
  • Exam stress
  • Study skills
  • and many others...

Your child will become more empowered so they can work towards achieving personal and educational goals and fulfilling their true potential.

When is counselling useful?

Whenever a situation bothers your child enough that it interferes with their ability to:

  • Concentrate in class or at work
  • Do their school-work
  • Communicate with parents
  • Sleep
  • Interact socially
  • Or generally enjoy life.

Appointments

Places are limited and it is essential to book well in advance.

I look forward to meeting you and your child.

Sincerely,
Deborah Jepsen, MAPS
Educational & Developmental Psychologist
