Australian Registered Psychologist & Australian Non‑Practising Lawyer
B.Psych, B.Theol, MA, LLB

​

I am an Australian Registered Psychologist and Australian non‑practising Lawyer with more than forty years of experience working at the intersection of clinical care and professional and regulatory risk. Admitted to the High Court of Australia and holding general registration with the Psychology Board of Australia, I bring a multidisciplinary perspective to the complex realities faced by high‑performing professionals.

​

My career has been shaped by a single focus: helping individuals navigate periods of instability, crisis, or impaired functioning without losing their professional footing. I work with clients who require discretion, structure, and a clear pathway back to safe and effective practice.

​

Across four decades, I have worked in every major domain of mental health: private practice, emergency departments, prisons, rehabilitation clinics, and corporate environments. I have held roles in global consulting firms and built an international consulting practice across the Asia‑Pacific region, supporting executives, regulated professionals, and organisations during high‑stakes transitions.

​

As both a psychologist and a lawyer, I understand that for many professionals, “disappearing” into a residential rehabilitation program is neither practical nor proportionate. The opportunity cost to career, reputation, and family can be significant. My work is designed to provide private help for addiction, burnout, or impaired functioning in a way that is discreet, structured, and aligned with regulatory expectations.

For individuals seeking therapy outside a regulatory or impairment context, I also maintain a separate general psychology practice.
