I have been in practise as a social worker since 1982 and have experience in child and family welfare, the aged and psychiatric social work. I specialised in mental health care, particularly in addiction, and family therapy.  My approach is to incorporate a brain based health approach in my work, and I have completed various courses in this exciting field.  My Practice also focuses on assessments in care and contact disputes and I have undergone specialised training as a family mediator.
