About Stephanie

Stephanie is a clinical psychologist with a passion for working with children and families to improve anxiety, behaviour, communication, and attachment.  She has a warm, enthusiastic, and empathetic approach to engage with clients, and works with clients from 7 years old all the way up to adulthood.

Stephanie has a strong background in improving communication and problem solving between parents and children using Collaborative and Proactive Solutions (CPS); she delivered this treatment as part of a randomised controlled trial for the Kidman Centre’s Side by Side research program, and originated the first CPS private clinic in Australia at the Kidman Centre.

Stephanie is trained in evidence-based practices such as Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).  She has also trained in a variety of parent-focused techniques, including emotion coaching through Tuning into Kids, attachment styles through Circle of Security, and behaviour management strategies.  Stephanie is passionate about connecting with children and families and believes that working holistically with the family system is essential to creating lasting positive outcomes for child clients.

Stephanie completed a Bachelor of Arts (Advanced) (Honours) in Ancient History, before completing a Graduate Diploma in Psychology and Honours in Psychology from the University of Sydney. She continued her development as a psychologist through the Master of Clinical Psychology at the University of Technology, Sydney.  She completed her clinical psychology registrar program after two years of practice with intensive supervision and a high level of professional development. Stephanie also has experience working with adult clients presenting with primarily anxiety and depression in previous private practice work.
