About Tracy

I started my career working as a paediatric nurse in London and Perth before I studied Psychology. I have been a registered psychologist for the past eight years. During this time, I have worked in private practice and at a systems level in primary and educational support schools. My premises are at The Dash Health Hub, Carine, Perth.

I specialise in supporting children, adolescents, and their families and children in care with a warm, compassionate and empathetic approach. I work clinically using a range of evidence-based techniques to enhance children and young people's mental health and well-being. I provide a safe space to focus on developmentally appropriate practices and advocate for changes that align with the unique ways children and young people's brains differ, promoting the acceptance of differences.

When I'm not working, you will find me spending time with my family and out in nature.
