Introduction

I'm Theresa and am currently completing a Doctorate in Psychology. Previously, I graduated with a Masters Degree in Social Work, majoring in children and families, from the University of Southern California and then completed a 2-year Postgraduate Fellowship from the Reiss-Davis Child Study Center in Los Angeles, specializing in child, adolescent and family psychodynamic psychotherapy. I work with children, adults and couples. I began my work with children in the mid-90s in my native Australia, after gaining an Associate’s Diploma in Drama and worked in schools. I spent several years working with children in Japan and from there, via several years working in London, branched out to include yoga and developed programs to bond children and parents in Los Angeles. Along the way I have worked with children and families in Cambodia, Chile, Argentina and Trinidad & Tobago and have traveled to around 60 countries! I worked for Didi Hirsch's Suicide Prevention Center and several Community Mental Health locations in Los Angeles and am currently in private practice and volunteer in grief and loss support. When I'm not working or studying you can find me hiking, skiing, paddle boarding and mountain biking around Lake Tahoe. My style is about listening and gaining a deep understanding of what brought you - or your family - to me, with respect and empathy and gently challenging by asking the hard questions! Are you ready for that? Don't worry, I'll help you and we'll go at your pace :-)
