Welcome!
I’m Jennifer Nurick, a Master’s-qualified Clinical Psychotherapist, attachment and trauma therapist, couples therapist, author and educator with 21 years’ experience in private practice.
I specialise in helping adults and couples heal anxious and avoidant attachment patterns, childhood trauma, complex PTSD and recurring relationship difficulties. My warm, integrative approach draws on attachment-based psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, somatic psychotherapy, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and energy healing.
I work online with clients across Australia and internationally. Alongside my clinical practice, I create books, courses, podcasts and educational content that make attachment and trauma healing accessible to a worldwide community of more than 200,000 people.
I am the author of Heal Your Anxious Attachment and host of the Psychotherapy Central Podcast, where I explore love, relationships, attachment, parts work and trauma healing.
Professional and Educational Work
I am the founder of Psychotherapy Central, an international education platform focused on attachment, relationships, trauma healing, parts work and spiritual development. Through my educational content, I have built a worldwide community of more than 200,000 people.
My book, Heal Your Anxious Attachment, is published by New Harbinger. I also host the Psychotherapy Central Podcast, which has received more than 30,000 downloads and offers accessible teaching on attachment, relationships and trauma healing.
I am a Director of the International Energetic Healing Association and a Director of Kriya Sakthi, a registered charity supporting food and education programs in India. I am also an Ambassador for A Sound Life and The Embody Lab.
Across 21 years in private practice, I have worked with individuals, couples and groups, led transformational seminars and international retreats, and developed courses, workbooks and educational resources for people seeking meaningful psychological and spiritual growth.
Courses and Educational Work
Drawing on 21 years of clinical experience, I create practical, self-paced online programs that help people understand their patterns and continue their healing in their own time. These courses integrate attachment theory, parts work, somatic practices and compassionate psychological education.
Relationship Cycle Breaker
My flagship attachment course is for people who feel caught in anxiety, overthinking, reassurance-seeking, emotional withdrawal or recurring anxious–avoidant relationship cycles. You’ll learn what drives these patterns and develop practical tools to create greater security within yourself and your relationships.
Inner Child Healing – Meet Your Inner Child
This foundational course gently guides you to understand and connect with the younger parts of yourself. Through teaching, reflection and guided practices, you’ll begin developing the compassionate inner relationship needed to heal childhood wounds and create a more secure internal foundation.
Advanced Inner Child Healing
This deeper program is for people ready to move beyond the foundations and continue working with their inner-child patterns. It offers further practices to support reparenting, emotional healing and a more compassionate relationship with the parts of you shaped by earlier experiences.
