Jeff Pemberton is a psychologist based in Ballarat, Victoria. You can find the practice at Room 16, Level 1, 101 Sturt Street, Ballarat VIC 3350. Jeff works with people who want practical support and steady, real-world help in everyday life.
Jeff offers individual therapy sessions for adults and young people who are dealing with things like stress, worry, low mood, and day-to-day anxiety. Sessions can also help when thoughts get stuck in a loop, or when feelings start to spill over into work, study, or relationships.
There’s also couples therapy when partners are finding it hard to talk, feel heard, or move past repeating fights. At times it’s not about one big event. Often it’s the pattern that builds over months or years. Jeff helps couples slow things down, understand what’s driving the conflict, and work toward better ways to respond.
For families, Jeff provides family therapy sessions. This can be useful when home life feels tense, when communication has broken down, or when everyone is trying but the same problems keep coming back. Family sessions focus on making change more doable, step by step.
One of the main therapy approaches Jeff uses is cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT). In many cases, this means looking at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Jeff also supports people with anxiety management, including strategies to cope in the moment and build more confidence over time.
Jeff’s experience includes working across individual, couples, and family settings, using structured and practical methods. The aim is to help people feel more in control, not just understand what’s going on.
Education details aren’t listed here, but Jeff’s work is grounded in evidence-based psychology and therapy methods, with a focus on what helps people make real changes.
Research and clinical trials are not listed for this practice. If you’re looking for specific trial involvement, it’s best to ask the team during booking to see what options may (or may not) be available.
