Ms Jennifer Fildes   MAPS

Medicare Psychologist Provider

Telehealth available

I am a registered psychologist in private practice Cremorne. I did my Masters of Psychology (Counselling) at Macquarie University and have been in part time private practice for approx. 20 years. I am a Medicare Provider and a member of the APS.

I do telehealth, phone and face to sessions for adults and couples.

For many years I ran the cardiac rehab program at POWH and now am working solely as a psychologist. I have worked with the Heart Foundation, Breastscreen and Ovarian Cancer Australia.

My nursing background gives me a useful understanding of physical illness and healing and my psychology experience helps clients to make meaning of the emotional impact of disease and diagnosis. As we know mood issues can precede and are often intertwined with physical illness. This stress and adjustment can complicate relationships, day to day life as well as home and work functioning. It can present serious challenges when there has been a life-threatening illness.
