About Me
I'm currently a provisional psychologist completing my MPsych. I joined the the Army in 1997 and have served in the Royal Australian Engineers in various roles and deployments. Throughout my time, I have experienced most aspects of military life. As a result of my military service and psychological training I am able to provide support with a sound understanding of the cultural, situational and unique challenges that military service creates while implementing the leading evidence based psychotherapies.
