Hello, my name is Julie and I work at the PPS Falcon Office. I have enjoyed my role as a Clinical Psychologist in the Mandurah area for the past five years. I hold a Bachelor of Psychology (UWA), Graduate Certificate in Child Protection Practice (UWA) and a Masters of (Clinical) Psychology (Curtin University). I am particularly interested in Schema Therapy and for the past year I have undertaken further studies with the view to practice as an Accredited Schema Therapist. I enjoy learning and utilising evidence based therapies, regularly incorporating Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Schema Therapy, Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into my clinical work.
I have worked in the psychological field for the past 30 years (both nationally and internationally) providing a range of supportive services to children, families, teenagers, couples and adults in both government and non government agencies. I bring this valuable experience to my role as a Clinical Psychologist.
I enjoy working with people from all backgrounds, walks of life and across the lifespan. Given my recent study in the area of Schemas, I have developed a passion working with adults who wish to overcome long term patterns of coping behaviour, which may have resulted in Panic and Anxiety Disorders, Major Depression, OCD, Personality Disorders, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and relationship issues.
I am committed to providing you with the highest level of service and will go the extra mile to ensure you meet your goals. I am invested in your wellbeing and feel endlessly rewarded to share in your emotional growth and development. I believe you already hold the skills to maximise your potential and by working closely together in a trusted and supportive environment, my aim is to assist you improve your coping, modify unhelpful thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and become healthier and happier.
When I am not working as a Clinician, I enjoy swimming, surfing and travelling. These activities keep me fit, refreshed, and sustained whilst I focus on your needs.
You can book an appointment with me in our Falcon clinic.
