In my work at Lallo Yellow Literacy, I am focused on helping children with learning difficulties. In particular, I provided literacy interventions for Primary School children who are behind in reading (evidence-based tutoring), and I conduct formal cognitive and educational assessments with 5-16 year olds where learning difficulties are part of the reason for referral. Lallo Yellow Literacy is a specialised service for assessment and intervention for Specific Learning Disorders - we are set up to help children with Dyslexia or other learning challenges, and to provide the intervention required as part of diagnosis.

Psychotherapy is supportive in helping clients move through acute or long-term psychological distress. Rather than symptom-based relief, psychotherapy explores the historical roots of current distress and therefore aims to uproot the foundations of mental suffering for transformative change.

I am passionate about amplifying voices and creating spaces for individuals to freely express themselves. This includes voices of people of colour, First Nations individuals, migrants, and other marginalised minority groups that experience greater systemic barriers. For some communities, there are expectations of how one should think and behave within their cultural context. However, this can often be misaligned with their true sense of self. Being stuck in between two cultural worlds can be challenging.

Sometimes we require a helping hand when adjusting to an ever-changing world. I want to help you develop skills and tools to create sustainable fulfilment within your life. Common challenges we all face include issues with self-esteem, processing negative or strong emotions, work-life balance, adjusting to change, developing meaningful relationships, and discovering our purpose. In addition, stress, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and interpersonal conflict can obstruct our ability to experience life to its fullest potential. You have the ability to unlock your own power, and I want to help you discover that inner strength.
