Before moving into therapeutic practice, Jane spent more than two decades teaching and developing programs in Vocational Education (QLD) relating to Creative Industries, with a specialization in 2D animated film pre-production. Her work in this field  helped shape the learning journeys of emerging artists and contributed to the growth of Brisbane’s animation and creative industries.

Across her career, Jane has worked in community arts, disability support, adult education, and creative facilitation. She brings a gentle, grounded presence to her sessions, helping people explore their stories through colour, movement, and image -  especially when words are hard to find. Her practice honours safety, curiosity, and the transformative potential of the creative process.
