Experience in areas of practice

Anxiety and Depression

I have worked in child and adolescent mental health and have been a team leader in a mental health service providing evidenced-based interventions for anxiety and depression for adults. I have worked in a number of private practice settings where I have helped people manage depression and anxiety.

Chronic Pain

I worked as clinical and health psychologist in a multi-disciplinary team treating chronic pain for over 10 years. I have published research in the area of CBT for chronic pain. I enjoy working as part of a team and if you see me for CBT for chronic pain , with your permission, I will work in with the other health professionals that you are seeing such as Physiotherapists to work toward a co-ordinated treatment approach.

Sport and Performance

I worked with the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) for 8 years, and I was the Australian Team psychologist for the Australian Cycling Team at the Rio Olympics and lead in to the London games. I have had long term consulting relationships with the AFL Players' Association and other sport bodies. I am also actively involved in research in the areas of performance anxiety in athletes and musicians, pain psychology and sport injury rehabilitation.
