Biography
I am a Educational and Developmental psychology registrar who has completed post-graduate training in Educational and Developmental Psychology. While completing my studies, I developed my clinical skills in government and non-government sectors specifically focused on Child and Youth Mental Health. I have experience in counselling children and adolescents demonstrating a range of difficulties including; anxiety, depression, emotional and behavioural regulation, trauma, and relationship issues. Being heavily involved in sport and a current international rugby union player, I am able to weave physical activity into therapy to engage and benefit clients. I am also proficient in academic and cognitive assessments. When not practising clinically, I conduct clinical research as an Associate Lecturer at the University of Queensland (UQCCR) and a Research Officer with QLD Health. Within this appointment I have published several articles related to Child and Youth Mental Health and am also a panel member of the Mental Health Scholarships Scheme for Allied Health Professionals. I also am committee member of the College of Educational and Developmental Psychologists for Queensland.
