Tayla Alexander-Crawford Psychologist

Melton Psychology Clinic 156 Coburns Road, Melton, Victoria, 3337

Overview

I come from a background of working in the school system in New Zealand, and I believe that the first step in making learning more accessible and inclusive is having a good understanding of a child's strengths and differences. This helps others gain a clearer picture of how to best support each child's unique needs. I also see the value in adults learning more about themselves and really enjoy connecting with people who are exploring their own strengths and challenges through assessment later in life.
