Meet the Team


  • Registered Psychologist

    Hi, I’m Alanah, I’m a psychologist and provide trauma informed, neurodiversity affirming and inclusive therapy. I have been providing therapy to clients since 2017. I’ve enjoyed working in rural and remote Queensland, in Acute Mental Health services with Queensland Health, with students in Brisbane high schools and most recently working in a trauma focused group private practice.

    My clinical special interests include: supporting clients who have experienced trauma, who wish to explore their neurodivergent traits via assessment and therapy, who are struggling with anxiety, stress and burnout.

    I provide therapy flexibly using several therapy modalities depending on the client and their goals. Specifically, I provide therapy informed by the following modalities: Acceptance and Commitment therapy, Schema therapy and Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing Therapy.

    I completed my psychology undergraduate degree and honours at the University of Queensland. I'm an EMDR Association of Australia certified member and Australian Association of Psychologists member. I'm also registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency.

    Margiela is my wonderful Italian Greyhound who enjoys being a calming presence during some of my telehealth sessions.

    In my spare time I enjoy making pottery and cooking for my loved ones.
