MICHELLE WOOD



Michelle Wood, PhD, is a counsellor with extensive experience working with individuals, couples, families, and children and supervising counsellors. Michelle works collaboratively with each person, couple, family, or child to resolve issues, restore well-being, and strengthen relationships.

Michelle’s working theory is wide, eclectic, and integrative, including narrative therapy, family therapy, positive psychology, Gottman’s relationship research, attachment theory, developmental theory, feminist theory, and queer theory; both Freud’s and Jung’s ideas are important and influential.

She initially trained as an occupational therapist and completed postgraduate training with leading Australian family therapist Michael White. In 2017, Michelle completed a PhD with the University of Kent, Canterbury, on the transformative power of literature, meditation, and walking in nature.

Michelle has worked as a counsellor for nearly 30 years in services such as child and adolescent mental health, child sexual abuse, family services, schools, alcohol and drug counselling, and adult mental health.

She currently divides her work between providing counselling and professional supervision for counsellors from her independent practice in Albury.
