My academic role has involved Course Leader of the Master of Professional Psychology, teaching postgraduate counselling skills, and professional experience supervision. I also supervise research theses in counselling and psychology. I run a small private practice alongside my academic work.

I am a counselling psychologist and family therapist with roughly 25 years' experience providing therapy, training, and supervision in schools, private practice, community agencies, and higher education. As a long standing member of the College I have valued our emphasis on understanding and researching the complex social and relational context of individuals, and how to fine-tune our skills as therapists. I am currently researching therapist decision-making processes and how this relates to involving parents when working with adolescents. My work these days is mostly focused on training, teaching, and supervision in counselling, psychology, and family therapy. I am also interested in improving ways to better support all practitioners who are working with people experiencing complex difficulties.

Texan by birth, Australian by choice, I started out my career in 2008 working with adolescents and children in schools in Melbourne but I transitioned to working with young people, adults and families in the private practice setting. I am also a registered supervisor. I recently opened my own psychology clinic, Teravia Psychology. I utilise many modalities but am passionate about using person-centred approaches like IFS, PVT, trauma informed approaches, family therapy and compassion based therapy. I am a humanist at heart and believe in the privilege of sitting across from a person while they share their story. I am passionate about the education of new psychologists and the broader community regarding the myriad of issues we see as psychologists. I look forward to contributing positively to the fabric of psychology in Australia by being involved in committee work.

I am a UK-trained and registered Counselling Psychologist, having completed a Doctorate in Counselling Psychology and Psychotherapy at Metanoia Institute in London, UK.
