Meet the Team
Jean Short
I am an Accredited Social Worker and Therapist with 15 years of clinical experience, specialising in complex trauma and other challenging mental health presentations.
I have undertaken advanced training in EMDR and am also a qualified DBT Therapist. In addition to my clinical work, I am the Clinical Director of Wise-Mind DBT Brisbane, where I support a team of dedicated mental health professionals.
I have a particular interest in working with complex presentations, including Borderline Personality Disorder and Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. My work is grounded in evidence-based, trauma-informed, and gender-affirming approaches that honour the dignity and uniqueness of each individual. I am deeply committed to creating a safe, respectful space where clients can process their experiences, develop new ways of coping, and move towards meaningful change.
I love this work because it allows me to witness people reclaim their stories, their voice, and their lives.
