End of year update
Taking a break at the close of another BIG year!
Now Practicing at Lismore Birth House
Hello from the leafy Northern Rivers! As you can see, I’ve had a website and branding update, a little refresh as part of the new start we’ve made on this move to Northern NSW. My family and I are now settled and (mostly) unpacked in a lovely house in Lismore. We’re...
Done and Dusted
And just like that... only five years after starting a three year Masters program (Lord. I did have a kid and relocate internationally, twice, in that time. Not that I need to justify taking 'longer'. I just, you know, wanted to)... Anyway, I finished. All done! Well....

How things are changing
I have a few big changes afoot this year, both in my work and personal life. Some were scheduled well in advance, some I didn't plan for until now, and one that has been on my dream to-do list for a long time. So. Here's where I'm at... Clinical practice & Health...
