Our practice is located in the heart of Canberra City, where we share a space with Higher Function, a complimentary health and wellbeing clinic. Together we’ve created an environment focussed on physical and emotional recovery; combining psychology, pilates, remedial massage and exercise physiology.
This blend creates a positive, vibrant setting that promotes individual contemplation, reflection and rehabilitation. A supportive space where our clients feel heard, understood and ultimately empowered.
Our rooms offer privacy and confidentiality, safety and comfort, and our reception staff are warm and welcoming.

Principal Psychologist/Director
Hi, my name is Kathy and I’m a registered psychologist and associate member of the Australian Psychology Society (APS).
Supporting individuals across a diverse range of challenges faced throughout the lifespan, I incorporate cultural, spiritual and developmental differences into my practice. My strengths lie in facilitating healthy management and acceptance of life transitions, with an understanding that change is a natural part of life.
I place a great deal of emphasis on getting to know you and building a safe therapeutic relationship. I am known for my innate sense of curiosity, my compassion and consistency, as well as my love for Dr Marten boots!
I’m an avid reader and am passionate about good health – through physical finess and mental wellbeing.
