Hello, I am a Senior Clinical Psychologist with over 13 years experience working with children and adolescents with medical complexity. I see children who are finding it hard to adjust to their chronic illness and may require intrusive medical treatments. I specialise in children with complex bowel and bladder conditions and children undergoing surgery. I worked in Paediatric Surgery at RCH for several years.
I also see parents in the adjustment to their child’s medical diagnosis/condition, which may be unexpected following birth or later in childhood.
I currently hold a Senior Clinical Psychology Educator position at RCH.
My therapeutic approach may include Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Based Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR).
