Experience
I’ve worked as a Psychologist since 2000 in both public and private sectors. Across thirteen to fourteen years in the government sector I worked in the areas of community health, mental health and forensic health. In a private capacity, I worked at ‘Headstart Intervention Services’, ‘Developing Minds Psychology and Education’ and The Flinders University of SA, where I was based at Noarlunga and worked as a Clinical Supervisor of PhD and Master of Clinical Psychology Students. I have also supervised General Psychologists for the purpose of Clinical Endorsement.
I have experience working with numerous issues including anxiety, depression, parent-child relationship issues, anger, rage, self-harm and complex and specific trauma. I have also worked with those who perpetrate various types of abuse with the aim of assisting them to live a pro-social life which thereby increases safety for those around them.
