Counselling in Hope Island, QLD

As a frontline responder, a veteran, or as an individual experiencing trauma, a victim of crime, or suffering suicidal ideation, I have a unique set of skills and insight that you may find helpful. Prior to becoming a psychologist, I was an Australian Federal Police officer, for 31 years. I worked alongside Queensland Police, other police services across the world, ambulance services, firies, and our Defence personnel in Afghanistan. I was a nurse prior to joining the AFP. I was driven to psychology through my role as a police negotiator and through witnessing the adverse impact of what we do on too many and their mental health.
