She has worked in both private and public settings as a Clinician and also a Team Leader and Director. She has presented at Conferences and Workshops, both nationally and internationally. She has a special interest in the treatment of Anxiety Disorders and OCD, and is particularly passionate about working with perfectionism and stress management with high performing athletes. She values a warm and collaborative relationship with her clients and utilises evidence based treatment that is tailored to the individual (particularly Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy).

Katie has worked with athletes both from Representative teams and individual sports (e.g. Gymnastics). She values health, sport and exercise, and has always actively participated in sports herself. She is currently a keen road cyclist and distance runner.

“I value the opportunity to provide mental health support for Australia’s athletes, from challenges early in their journey as an athlete to retirement from their sporting career.”
