Overview

I am a registered psychologist and originally worked as a registered nurse with many years of experience in varied areas of nursing. I therefore have a good understanding of how physical illnesses can affect our mental health. My previous work provided me with a fitting background in which to train as a Health Psychologist. My areas of interest and experience include assisting people with acquired brain injury, new parent support, workplace issues and workcover, disaster recovery and rural and remote psychological support, including FIFO workers via telehealth counselling.
