Overview
I have an extensive background as a registered psychologist for over 10 years in public and private sectors including defence, workers compensation and forensics (namely juvenile justice).
I like challenging presentations, particularly given my forensic background. I also have a special interest in sexual intimacy, trust, conflict and communication issues. My warm, caring approach and respectful non-judgemental manner help provide a trusting, safe and collaborative environment to do this.
My approach to counselling is client directed and is dependent on your needs and goals. I can be very practical and solution focussed or more responsive, caring and empathic depending on what you determine your needs are at initial assessment.I have a keen interest in working with couples and families as I believe that good relationships can be central to psychological and physical wellbeing.
I have been involved in quite extensive research and education with some of the most advanced specialists in this field and we developed relationship and family counselling as an integral part of a pain management programme. We found this could have more impact on the rehabilitation of somebody’s injury than working with the client alone.
