Meet our founder, Kerstie, a beacon of expertise and compassion in the field of psychology. With a wealth of clinical experience working with children, families, and individuals affected by trauma and socio-economic barriers, Kerstie brings a multifaceted understanding to the practice. Her journey is more than a professional one; it’s a personal dedication driven by a profound desire to make a difference. Drawing from a range of therapeutic interventions, Kerstie’s approach prioritises validation, empathy, and creating safe spaces for expression. Her nurturing and non-judgmental demeanour fosters an environment where vulnerability is met with understanding and emotions find a voice.
Kerstie has worked in community and social settings, delivering in-depth psychosocial assessments among crisis and at-risk populations. Her toolbox of therapeutic interventions is as diverse as the individuals she serves. She curates a holistic approach tailored to your unique requirements, from art therapy to narrative therapy, trauma-informed care, mindfulness, ACT, CBT, and DBT for emotional regulation. This is therapy with a personalised touch, where your well-being is at the heart of every intervention.
Empower Me Psychology truly stands out due to its innovative 100% telehealth-centred approach. Through the channels of text messages, phone calls, and video sessions, I offer clients a seamlessly integrated pathway to access the vital support they need. I aim to ensure that no matter where they are located, individuals can discover comfort and empowerment within the embrace of my practice.
At Empower Me Psychology, my commitment is rapid responsiveness. Demonstrating my sincere dedication, I guarantee a response to all inquiries within 2-3 business days. This dedication is a cornerstone of my practice’s philosophy, creating a secure and nurturing haven where an individual’s voice is heard and they receive unwavering support on their journey to improved mental well-being.
My professional journey has always been focused on mental health. As a registered general psychologist under the AHPRA, my commitment to ethical and effective practice is unwavering. I completed a Bachelor of Psychological Science (Honours) at CQUniversity Australia. This academic foundation laid the groundwork for my multifaceted approach to healing.
