About Jerusha

"I believe we all have untapped strengths within us, and that everyone deserves a space where they can be honest with themselves."

I work with adults navigating anxiety, self-worth concerns, relationship difficulties, burnout, grief, trauma, and significant life transitions, including experiences that may trace back to earlier family or childhood dynamics. I also provide career guidance for those exploring their career direction or next steps.

Each of us moves through life at a different pace. My role as a counsellor is to walk alongside you through this therapeutic process. Together, we explore how past experiences, recurring patterns, and beliefs may be shaping your life — and work towards gaining clarity, emotional awareness, and resilience, so you can move forward in a way that is meaningful to you.

Counselling is available in English and Bahasa Malaysia.

My Approach

• —Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) — to help you understand and reshape patterns of thoughts, emotions, and behaviours.
• —Trauma-informed & Attachment-aware Practice — to explore how earlier experiences and relational patterns may still be affecting you today.
• —Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT) — to support deeper emotional processing, especially around attachment, relationships, and unmet needs.
• —Internal Family Systems-informed Practice (IFS-informed) — to help you understand different parts of yourself with greater compassion, especially when there are conflicting emotions, protective patterns, or old wounds.
• —Somatic-informed Tools — to help you notice your body's signals, regulate your nervous system, and build a greater sense of internal safety.

My Journey

Before completing my Master of Professional Counselling at Monash University Malaysia, I worked across business development, project coordination, operations, and community development — experiences across people-centred settings that deepened my respect for the many responsibilities and unseen pressures people carry.

My clinical training has included work in community mental health, crisis response, and structured therapeutic programmes. I bring that breadth into the counselling room — alongside training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy, and trauma-informed care, as well as a deep respect for the complexity of each person's story.
