Associate Professor of Psychology, Australian Catholic University

I am the National Course Coordinator for postgraduate psychology programs at the School of Behavioural and Health Sciences. I joined ACU in 2015 to assist in setting up the Master of Psychology (Clinical) course in the Strathfield campus. I graduated in 2002 from the University of Melbourne with a Doctor of Psychology majoring in clinical psychology. I am a registered psychologist with clinical endorsement and a PsyBA accredited supervisor.

My research interests are in the area of clinical psychology. My research focuses on obsessive-compulsive disorder and hoarding disorder. I am also very interested in examining the application of mindfulness and acceptance-based therapies (e.g., acceptance and commitment therapy) for these conditions.
