Jeremy Maksour
Jeremy is passionate about helping adults gain a deeper, more meaningful understanding of themselves and their experiences. His approach is often conversational yet direct, and thoughtful yet playful - grounded in curiosity and focused less on symptom reduction, and more on understanding the whole person in their context.
Jeremy blends a range of evidence-based therapies (you might recognise some acronyms: ACT, CBT, DBT and more) in a trauma-informed and neurodiversity-affirming approach, always tailored to the individual in front of him.
Jeremy takes pride in compassionately supporting and empowering his clients as they work through experiences of stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, shame, neurodiversity, and/or relationship difficulties - though many begin unsure of how to name what’s going on, only that something doesn’t feel quite right.
Jeremy is committed to a practice that affirms each person’s context and complexity. At the heart of his work is the belief that therapy should feel like a space where you can be open, honest, curious, and fully human - not as something to be fixed, but as someone to be understood.

Coco
Coco is the ten-month-old ball of fluffy energy that lights up CocoNando Support Services. With a swirl of curls, a perpetual wag, and a personality that’s equal parts sass and sweetness, Coco is our resident sunshine and, on occasion, a master of mischief. Described by clients and staff as irresistibly charming, Coco’s day-to-day energy is matched only by her appetite for adventure (destruction)—and snacks.
Coco, like most of us has some challenges around impulsivity, being over-opinionated (barking) and is still learning to pause, check in, and approach calmly, despite occasional bursts of excitement (licking you all over your face). She’s still discovering personal space and greeting nuances, and is grateful to be guided by positive, gentle interactions to help her stay calm and regulated for all those much-needed session cuddles!
