She has worked as a fully-qualified Clinical Psychologist for 15 years, and has a special interest and extensive experience in working with the following presentations:

1.       Stress, burnout, and work/life balance. Annie work with individuals who feel overwhelmed at work and in life, helping them boost their resilience and address underlying mindset (including perfectionism) and habits that hold them back.

4.      Assisting individuals and couples to develop better communication and relationship skills. I work with those who want to improve the way that they relate to others, be it in partner relationships, with family members, and also communicating better at work (I have taught communication skills to UWA medical students). I also do couples therapy.

5.      Helping individuals with alcohol misuse. I have worked with the Alcohol and Substance Use Treatment Program at Hollywood Hospital.

6.      Assisting individuals to live a more meaningful life aligned with their values. I also work well with individuals from a faith-based perspective (particularly Christianity, within which I receive pastoral referrals).
