Our Practitioners

Hi, I’m Katie — the heart behind this space.

I’m a passionate therapist dedicated to supporting children, young people, and their families through playful, creative, and evidence-based approaches.

I hold a Bachelor of Counselling from Edith Cowan Univeristy, alongside certifications in Play Therapy and Sand Tray Therapy, as well as a Diploma in Youth Work, Mental Health, and Alcohol and Other Drug Use (AOD) from Strategix college, South Metro TAFE. I have also completed trauma training with Karen Hulls at Complex Trauma Training WA. My journey has been deeply rooted in working alongside children and adolescents across a variety of settings, giving me a rich and practical understanding of their unique needs.

With extensive training in trauma and attachment, and both personal and professional insight into neurodiversity, I offer a safe, inclusive, and supportive space for children to express themselves and thrive.

This work isn’t just my career — it’s my calling. I believe in the power of connection, creativity, and playful presence to help children feel seen, heard, and empowered.
