About Jayde

Jayde Lecerf is an AASW social worker with three years' experience based in Australia. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, relationship strain, grief, eating and sleeping problems, anger and mood-related concerns. Jayde also supports people coping with life changes and complex issues such as attachment and abandonment concerns.

She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Jayde draws on approaches like acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioural techniques and client-centred listening to help people identify what matters to them and build everyday coping skills. Conversations often include setting simple goals and practising strategies between meetings.

Her background combines psychology and social work, which she uses to look at both current patterns and the wider context of someone’s life. That means attention to relationships, housing and substance use when relevant, not only mood or symptoms.

Jayde has clinical experience supporting people through self-harm, suicidal thinking, family and domestic violence, substance misuse and trauma-related problems. She uses evidence-based methods and skill-building tools to help people manage difficult moments and reduce distress.

If you are an adult feeling stuck after study, a move, or a break-up, Jayde can help you sort priorities and practise practical steps. To begin, follow the site process to match and schedule an initial session.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking small, workable steps towards them. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and people who feel stuck in unhelpful patterns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying out different behaviours. It often involves structured exercises and homework to reduce anxiety, depression and panic symptoms.

Client-Centred Therapy centres on listening and validating your experience so you can decide what changes to make. This approach supports people who need space to reflect on identity, relationships and life purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jayde will discuss options with you and choose methods based on your goals, needs and how you prefer to work. That collaboration guides whether sessions focus more on skills, values or reflective conversation.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online appointments can make it easier to fit therapy around study, shifts or travel, reduce time spent commuting, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk through practical scheduling and format preferences during your initial meeting so sessions match everyday life.
