I have expert knowledge and experience in child mental health and development, child and family welfare, including child protection, family violence, family law and supporting positive parent-child relationships and family functioning.

I am located in Yarraville (Inner West Melbourne). Just a short walk from the Yarraville Train Station and free on street parking is available.
