Tina is a Clinical Psychologist who has worked with people across all ages, including children and their parents, adolescents, adults, and older adults, with a variety of presentations including adjustment difficulties, anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and substance use disorders. She previously worked in hospital and research settings.
Tina also has an interest in neuropsychological assessments. If you have concerns about neurodevelopmental disorders such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), she can make recommendations for further specialist assessment. If you have a neuropsychological assessment report, she can support you with putting into place its recommendations.
Tina is a full member of the Australian Clinical Psychology Association (ACPA) and holds a Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) from Macquarie University and a Master of Clinical Psychology from the University of Technology, Sydney. With her specialised training in clinical psychology, Tina is proficient in first-line psychological treatments: Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and its specific forms such as Comprehensive Behavioural Intervention for Tics (CBIT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), and Mindfulness-Integrated CBT (MiCBT) for children and adults, and Parent Management Training (PMT) for children and their parents.
Tina’s approach is to support clients to be active participants in evidence-based treatment that is individualised to meet their therapeutic goals. Fair warning – this means you’ll be doing homework!
