It's great to meet you! I am a fellow sparkly brain, and my life's focus is to celebrate and support the mental health and wellbeing of other sparkly, creative brains.
I have worked in the creative industries since 2000 and, concurrently, became a clinical psychologist and clinical researcher, with a primary focus on eating disorders and lived experience research. My world's collided in 2016 and, since then, I have had the absolute privilege of providing specialised mental health treatment, support, education and advocacy for the creative and performing arts sectors.
I offer private therapy, industry workshops, employee assistance programs, psychoeducation and bespoke resources. I am always eager to make new connections and explore ideas on how we can better support creative people.
Dr Jane Miskovic-Wheatley (she/her)

I do not provide crisis services; please see the freely available resources below.
I acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which I work, the Darug and Gandangara people, and recognise their continued custodianship and connection to the land, waters and community.
I acknowledge and honour the wisdom, insight, and courage of people with lived and living experience of mental health challenges, distress, or illness, and of those who care for and support them. I recognise that these experiences bring invaluable knowledge that can shape services, policies, and research in ways that truly meet people’s needs.
I commit to listening to, learning from, and working alongside people with lived experience as equal partners, ensuring their voices guide decision-making and drive meaningful change. I also acknowledge the strength it takes to share one’s story and the diversity of experiences that exist within our communities.
