Hi, I’m Lauren (she/her). I’m a Health Psychologist and I love working with people who are ready to make changes in their lives.

Life is short and I want to help you live your best life. You may like to work with me if:

  • You want to learn to be kinder to yourself

  • You want a healthier, happier relationship to your body, food and/or movement

  • You want to manage stress, worry and/or anxiety more effectively

  • You want to get clear on what you want in life, then set and achieve your goals

  • You want to manage relationship stress and challenges more effectively

  • You want to grow, learn and heal from a difficult life experience and/or loss

  • You want to manage a health condition so you feel in control of your life (instead of feeling as if your health condition is in charge!)

  • You want to look after yourself emotionally while dealing with infertility, fertility treatment, pregnancy, or those early days of adjusting to being a parent

  • You want to make positive changes in your health and life

Evidence-based practice grounded in warmth, compassion, respect, hope and optimism.

A bit about me

I became fully registered as a psychologist in 2012 after completing a Bachelor of Arts (Psychology)(Honours) at the University of Queensland and a Doctor of Psychology (Health) at Deakin University. I am a Credentialed Eating Disorder Clinician (CEDC-MH), a Member of the Australian Psychological Society (MAPS) and a Fellow of the College of Health Psychologists.

I have worked in a range of settings across Melbourne and Brisbane, most recently working in corporate health and wellbeing before returning to private practice. While Melbourne will always have a special place in my heart, Brisbane is now home once again and I love almost everything about it (except Magpie swooping season).

I feel so grateful to be a psychologist and to connect and work with so many people. I am warm and friendly and approach my work with a deep compassion for the difficulties we all experience as humans combined with a strong sense of optimism in our resilience as humans - our ability to heal, learn, grow and move forward.

I really believe in the power of therapy and psychological science and strategies to not only manage the hard parts of life but to also increase our resilience, happiness and wellbeing.

I also run a business with my best friend who is also a psychologist Dr Candice Tribe, called The School of Self-Care. We run online courses to help people live happier, healthier, kinder, and braver lives and send a free Wellbeing Wednesday email where we give a little self-care or wellbeing tip or strategy each week. You can sign up here if you would like to be a part of our Wellbeing Wednesday community.
