Summary

27-year-old provisional psychologist and Master of Clinical Psychology candidate at Charles Sturt University, bringing two years of experience from a private practice in Melbourne, skilled in client interaction, triage, and crisis management. Eager to expand my expertise, I seek placement opportunities in structured, supervised settings to further enhance my clinical skills and contribute meaningfully to the field. My goal is to grow professionally while making a positive impact in diverse settings while simultaneously fulfilling the criteria of my placements to gain general registration as a psychologist at the end of 2025. I would also like to highlight that I spent the last 5 years living Luxembourg with my husband where I was exposed to a wide range of different cultures, which has allowed me to acquire invaluable knowledge around the specific nuances in behaviour and speech attached to different cultures (which is a valuable skill in a multicultural city such as Melbourne).
