Penny worked in the rehabilitation sector for many years, supporting adults and older adults to recover from injury and illness. She recognised that there was an unmet need in supporting older adults to adjust to life changes and loss. She then went on to work within the Public Mental Health service and is excited to bring this experience to provide holistic mental health support to older adults through the Connection Counts program.
Penny is passionate about delivering person centred care. She values authenticity and empathy, endeavouring to infuse these values into her work.
Penny uses a range of focussed psychological strategies including Compassion Focussed Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness, Emotion Regulation Skills training, Activity Scheduling, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
Penny runs her own independent practice and engages Clear Health Psychology to provide administrative and other business services to enable her to provide assessment and treatment to her clients.
