Hello!
I am a Registered Psychologist, Board-approved Supervisor and Doctoral Candidate.
I love Psychology. Like, I really love it. My absolute favourite part is bringing diagnostic clarity to clients and linking them in with the right supports for them. I assess for ADHD and Autism in adults Australia-wide via Telehealth and I work in private practice in Perth, Western Australia supporting children, young people and their families.
I am kind, caring and direct. I often use humour with my clients and can be sarcastic at times. My approach is neuro-affirming which means I embrace different neurotypes and encourage you to be your authentic self. I am neurodivergent myself and am familiar with the frustrations and elations a late diagnosis can bring.
