About Dianna

I began my career working with organisations focusing on Workplace bullying and Training and Development. I quickly branched into Executive Coaching, Mediation and Counselling and Employee Assistance Program (EAP) Counselling.

I gained valuable experience as a Psychologist and Counsellor at Monash IVF, On The Line (Suicide Help Line) and Lifeline.

I begun to recognise the emergence of a common theme presented by clients: Relationship Dynamics. 

I completed under-graduate, post graduate and Master qualifications in Psychology and Organisational Development to be come a registered Counselling Psychologist.

I keep up-to-date with recent developments, research and current therapies, such as: Brain and Neuropsychology, Neurodiversity (eg: learning difficulties, ADHD, Autims, etc), Emotional Focused Therapy (EFT), Relational Life Therapy (RLT), High Sensitivity (HSP), Childhood Emotional Neglect (CEN).

With over 30 years experience working with individuals, couples and families, I believe I can assist my clients in exploring aspects of their life in which they feel 'limited' and/or 'trapped'.  Together we develop a treatment plan to assist in leading the life they have always wanted to lead.

Through my own experience, and that shared by my clients, I started my own private practice to support those experiencing trauma, neurodiversity and challenging situations.
