I'm Leanne, a Registered Psychologist with a background in teaching and school psychology. I have extensive experience working with families, educators, and other professionals, providing assessment, counselling, and case management to young people and their families.

I'm experienced in working with neurodiverse young people who live with ADHD, ASD, giftedness, learning difficulties, and associated issues. I'm neuro-affirming and an ally of the LGBTIQ+ community.

As a former primary school teacher, I have a strong educational psychology background and apply a holistic lens to learning difficulties, intellectual disabilities, and behaviour issues. I have a special interest in helping people understand their unique strengths through the assessment process and facilitating the discovery of strategies to overcome difficulties.

I work in a compassionate and gentle manner with individuals experiencing emotional distress, grief, anxiety, panic symptoms, and depression. I have considerable experience working with young people who have lost hope and are experiencing suicidal ideation and/or self-injurious behaviour. I'm trained in several therapy modalities, including DBT, CBT, and ACT, and am continually learning new ways to support people in need.

I currently practice on Saturdays for therapy only but can refer on for assessments.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family, crochet, reading, and holidays. I'm a connoisseur of all things beautiful and look for the good in everyone and everything.
