ACC Registered Provider - Therapist/Lead Provider (PAS817)

With a career spanning over 25 years, I am a highly qualified social service professional.

Born in Adelaide, South Australia I traveled far during my early life. When I was five, my parents relocated themselves and their three children to Tanzania, East Africa. Five years later my family moved again to the United States. I now reside in Wellington, New Zealand.

My diverse experience growing up has guided me throughout my career to develop culturally sensitive services. I have been involved in direct social work practice dealing with most individual and social family issues with every population group. Along with this experience I have worked managing social service organisations and training new social workers and professionals working with trauma in the field.

I have lectured at Massey University and Whitireia Polytech, and was the National Manager of the Te Wānanga o Aotearoa social work programme.

I am available to support my clients with in-person sessions or virtually.
