Meet Jourdon – Therapy Assistant

Jourdon is one of the warm, welcoming faces you’ll see at The Nurtured Village, bringing a fresh perspective, a whole lot of heart, and a strong foundation in psychology to our team. After completing a 3-year Psychology degree at Flinders University, Jourdon is set to begin her Honours in 2025 – with big dreams of continuing into a Master of Clinical Psychology and making a difference in rural and regional communities.

With a deep passion for mental health, especially within farming families and remote communities, Jourdon is committed to making support more accessible, more human, and more connected. Whether she’s helping facilitate group programs or simply offering a safe, calm space for connection – she’s someone who listens with intention and always meets people where they’re at.

What Jourdon brings to The Nurtured Village:

Jourdon has a natural gift for building relationships and creating a sense of safety and belonging – whether it’s with our young clients or their grown-ups. Her psychology background brings insight and thoughtfulness to her work, and she’s always tuned in to how we can better support our families and each other.

She also coordinates our returning-client social groups – providing ongoing connection and community, which we know can be incredibly powerful in the healing process.
