Brigitte is a Provisional Psychologist who is completing her final placement for her postgraduate training in clinical psychology. Before entering psychology, she began a career in finance but soon realised that she was far more drawn to working directly with people.

Brigitte has since worked across disability and community psychology settings, supporting children, adolescents and adults with anxiety, specific fears, emotional regulation difficulties, neurodivergence and parenting concerns.

She has a particular interest in working with preschool and primary-school-aged children and their families. Brigitte enjoys helping children understand their emotions, build practical skills and develop confidence, while working closely with parents and caregivers to support progress beyond the therapy room.

Brigitte understands children within the context of their relationships, family and everyday environment. She values finding creative ways to make therapy something children feel comfortable participating in while helping families create meaningful and sustainable changes in everyday life.

• individual psychological intervention for preschool and primary-school-aged children;
