A Bit About Me
I have been a school teacher, youth worker, a drug and alcohol and relationship counsellor and educator, amongst heaps of other jobs.
I have worked in both private and public hospitals as a psychologist giving me a profound understanding of a wide range of mental health disorders.
I have lived in Rural Australia for most of my life and still love living in a small country town, but now it is not a weekend trip to go to the beach! After my wife passed away I became a single dad to 4 young children. Now I delight in being with my 5 granddaughters, and when possible, body boarding (but only between the flags!! yet!!)
I am here to assist you to gain the skills to move through tough times and develop the rich and fulfilling life you wish to live.
