    I grew up on a cane farm outside of Mackay, in the north of Australia, and I now live in Brisbane. After finishing school I worked and travelled around doing a variety of different jobs, including retail and hospitality, and as a Massage Therapist before I studied for a degree in psychology. I have now worked for many years with children, young people and families in child protection, residential care, homelessness, domestic violence and in the foster care system, before starting my own mobile service. I now provide counselliing, family support, workshops, hypnosis and energy healing, as well as my writing.
