Irene is a Provisional Psychologist completing her Master of Psychology (Educational and Developmental) at the University of Melbourne.

Irene has experience working in the Department of Education and a major Victorian children’s hospital outpatient clinic. With a passion for working with children, young people, and their families, Irene focuses on helping them understand the factors that influence development and wellbeing. She incorporates a range of evidence-based interventions such as Person-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Play Therapy.
