About me
I worked as a school psychologist in the United States, in both primary and secondary schools, providing educational support and psychological treatment to children, adolescents, and their families. I currently work in private practice and at Child’s Play Qld, a non-profit organisation providing affordable counselling services to the community.
I have broad experience in the psychological treatment of children, adolescents, and adults experiencing mental health and emotional/behavioural difficulties. I also have extensive experience working with people who are on the autism spectrum.
Based on the individual needs, attributes, and strengths of my clients, I utilize techniques from a number of modalities including cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness, play therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy and solution-focused therapy to enhance therapeutic outcomes.
