I obtained my Bachelor of Arts (Psychology), Bachelor of Criminology (Criminal Behaviour) and Graduate Diploma in Psychology through Murdoch University. During my time studying many areas have piqued my interest, such as developmental and abnormal psychology, assessment and intervention, and offender rehabilitation and reintegration. I have a passion for holistic and trans diagnostic approaches to mental health and well-being. When targeting mechanisms maintaining symptoms/behaviours, the alleviation of distressing experiences can be achieved. I have experience working with children and adolescents with disabilities, including ADHD, GDD, and Autism. As well as working with adults suffering from neurological conditions, such as MS, MND, Stroke, and ABI. I am driven by a passion to help others achieve anything they set their minds to, whether that is everyday independence or working through mental health challenges. No challenge is too big or too small.
