About Jayde
Jayde Lecerf is an AASW social worker practising in Australia with three years' experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, low self-esteem, depression and difficult life changes. She also supports people dealing with grief, sleep and eating concerns, anger, mood instability and questions about life purpose.
Jayde uses straightforward, person-centred ways of working. She listens first and helps people name what matters to them. Sessions focus on building practical skills and noticing personal values to guide next steps. That might mean learning coping skills, sorting out unhelpful thinking patterns, or setting small goals to test a change.
Her background combines psychology and social work. That mix informs how she links emotional struggles with everyday pressures. She draws on several approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to match what a person needs at a given time.
In practice, Jayde often helps people who feel stuck after a change in work, relationships or health. She supports people to clarify what matters, manage distress, and try realistic steps forward. Her experience includes responding to self-harm and toxic relationships, and working with people affected by substance use and domestic violence.
Sessions aim to be practical and focused. Jayde uses evidence-informed tools while following a person-centred style. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange a first session to discuss goals and next steps.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can help when someone feels directionless or overwhelmed by emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and testing different ways of responding to reduce distress and improve functioning. Motivational Interviewing uses guided conversation to strengthen a person's own reasons for change and is often used when someone is unsure about shifting behaviour such as substance use.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jayde will discuss options and collaborate on what feels most useful based on a person's goals and preferences. That collaboration may involve mixing elements from different approaches to suit what is happening in real life.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Practical benefits often mentioned with online work include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week, cutting travel time, and choosing quieter surroundings or shorter check-ins when needed. Appropriately qualified or registered professionals can adapt tools like ACT and CBT to online sessions to focus on skills practice, values work and problem-solving that fit day-to-day life.
