While I'm happy to provide coping strategies, techniques and interventions from session one, I also like to get to know you the person - what troubles you, what you've tried, and the aspirations, skills and the values that drive you; the person with the symptoms as well as the symptoms themselves. When people talk about these things they often arrive at their own unique solutions.
I have worked as a psychologist and vocational and rehabilitation counsellor in public and private hospitals, and lecturer and clinical supervisor since 1986. I have been registered as a psychologist under the present arrangements since 1997.
