About me

My practice
Being a child, adolescent and young adult specialist, with over 30 years experience, my passion for working with young people was realised when I began my career as a teacher, in both primary and high school settings. I later specialized in the area of learning difficulties. I have successfully combined my knowledge of neuroscience, child and adolescent development, learning and behaviour with Applied Neuroscience, Counselling, Clinical Hypnotherapy and Special Education, to support good mental health and wellbeing.

This unique array of skills enables me to work therapeutically, while appreciating the difficulties experienced by young people, as they navigate family life, independence, relationships and dealing with the pressures of school, TAFE or University and career.

I regularly attend ongoing professional development in the form of conferences, workshops and study, to keep me informed and up to date on current good mental health practices. My special area of interest is in working with teens and young adults with anxiety & depression.

My studies in neuroscience, has led to me being certified as an Applied Neuroscience Practitioner. Neuroscience informs my counselling practice and is an exciting science backed approach to treatment.

I trained as a clinical supervisor through Derby University, in the U.K, graduating with a Post Graduate Certificate in Clinical Supervision at Masters Level 7. I hold membership with the Australian Counselling Association's College of Supervisors and I am a PACFA registered Clinical Supervisor.
