Child and Family

Children express their feelings through their behaviour and may react to major changes in their lives by becoming withdrawn, angry and depressed. They may also have problems at school as well as in their relationships.

I like to involve the whole family in the treatment process with the initial session conducted alone with the parents. The parents have an opportunity to discuss their concerns. The information gathered will inform the treatment process.

My Credentials

After I obtained my Bachelor of Psychology (Hons) I had to complete an intensive 2 ½ year post graduate Psychology internship program to become registered as a Psychologist. Since then and over the years I have practiced I have worked with a wide range of client presentations and all ages from children to elderly.

Who I am today

I have experienced several major life challenges and feel I have emerged from ‘the other side’ as a deeper, mature and more loving person. I truly believe that I cannot help people unless I’ve done my own personal work and continue to do so.

My life experience as well as my experience as a practitioner, has helped many others and I believe I can help you as well.

Rebate – Medicare

Your GP can provide you with a GP Mental Health Care Plan which entitles you to an initial 6 sessions with a rebate of $84.80. The rebate applies to both the standard and concessional fees. Under the GP Mental Health Care Plan it may be possible to have up to 10 rebated sessions per year.

Rebate – Private Health

For those clients who choose to use private health cover, your health insurer may offer a rebate for psychological consultations under their ‘Extras’ provision. The level of cover varies between funds so it may be best to ask your health insurer about your cover. It is important to note that if you are utilising a Medicare rebate, your private health insurer is unable, by legislation, to cover any gap payment.
