About me

I am a psychologist, registered in Australia as a Counsellor, with over 20 years of experience as a clinician and academic in both South America (Bolivia) and Australia. I completed my PhD at Flinders University in South Australia, focusing on the interaction between mobile apps and mental health in young people.

Currently, I oversee the Master of Counselling and the Master of Creative Arts Therapies programs, and manage our training clinic, "Caladenia Counselling." This clinic offers students a unique hands-on training experience before they enter the field. Additionally, I practice privately, providing therapy and clinical supervision.

I am a clinical member of the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) and a clinical member and registered supervisor of the Christian Counselling Association of Australia (CCAA).

My research interests include wellbeing, young people's mental health, identity, and the construction of meaning.
