More about Katrina
- 20 years' experience
- Female
- AHPRA
I am an experienced practitioner with over 20 years' experience working within forensic psychological practice. I am approachable, authentic and ethical. I take pride in being able to offer individual assessment and intervention services to individuals who find themselves engaging in harmful behaviours and in difficult situations. I enjoy walking alongside people on their individual journey and truly believe that understanding ourselves and our behaviour is the first step towards meaningful change.
I moved into private practice after 20 years in the public service. I bring this knowledge, experience and expertise to the community in order to provide better access to forensic psychologists for those who want and need it.
I reject a "one-size-fits all" approach and value choice, dignity, and accountability. I hold the view that behaviour does not define a person - it reflects one part of how they have learnt to cope and survive. I feel passionate about supporting people to move towards a safer, healthier and more meaningful life.

About online counseling

- Pay a low flat fee.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
