My Story
I am a qualified psychologist with over 20 years of experience in supporting children, young people, and families through various mental health and developmental challenges. My background includes postgraduate studies in Educational and Developmental Psychology, and I have recently returned to study to complete my Master of Clinical Psychology.
​
I am passionate about delivering evidence-based therapy through fun and engaging methods, incorporating animal-assisted therapy and play-based techniques to create a safe space for children to explore their emotions and express themselves freely.
​
I also have extensive experience working with adolescents and young adults, taking a compassionate, trauma-informed approach to care. Drawing from a variety of evidence-based psychological modalities, I tailor each intervention to meet the unique needs of the individual.
I work closely with my therapy dogs, Skip and Pogo, who are integral members of our therapeutic team. together, our goal is to foster resilience, emotional growth, and meaningful change in a safe and supportive environment.
