Hello! I am a registered psychologist and support children, adolescents and their families in the Outer Eastern suburbs of Melbourne and the Yarra Valley. I enjoy supporting child/adolescent clients who are experiencing challenges such as emotional dysregulation, social difficulties, inattention, hyperactivity, anxiety, or learning problems. Perhaps an educator or other health professional has suggested your child may be neurodivergent and you are seeking support and clarity around potential next steps? Or maybe you have concerns about how your child interacts within the world, socially or academically?
I offer therapy in clinic, kinder/school (in the Croydon, Lilydale, Montrose, Mt Evelyn areas) or via telehealth (pending age of child) and assessments including screening for behavioural and emotional disorders, cognitive (IQ), educational, ADHD and autism. I'm also able to liaise with the educators or other professionals involved in your child's care.
You are welcome to reach out via email or my website to see whether I may be a good fit for your child and their needs. Please note there are some presentations I do not work with (i.e., trauma, eating disorders, or personality disorders).
