| Julia McKenzie Palmer Psychologist |
| I believe that all people have the right to seek happiness and fulfillment in life and that each person may at times need support and help to find clarity and direction along their way. I facilitate healing and growth through the process of empowering people to take responsibility for their life and choices. |

| Brett O'Connor Psychologist |
| Psychologists are experts in human behaviour, and have studied the brain, memory, learning and human development. They have also studied how people think, feel, behave and react, and can help you cope with difficult situations. My focus as a psychologist is to help children, adolescents and young adults to learn more efficiently, to overcome barriers that are preventing successful school, work or life experiences, and to assist families to find ways of functioning more effectively.

| Meg Perkins Psychologist |
| I work with people on probation and parole, with people recently released from prison and people still in prison. Since 1991 when I first went into the old Boggo Road jail in Brisbane, I have been interested in working with the mental health issues that lead to substance abuse and through the substance abuse to offending behaviour. I am able to bulk bill most ex-prisoners as Medicare includes substance abuse in the list of mental health problems covered by the new rebates. |

| Doreen Westley Psychologist |
| I believe that therapy should be helping people to find their own path. It should be a supportive experience and maybe a difficult journey and the journey may need to be completed in many short journeys rather than one continuous journey. |

| NB. From October 2006, I am no longer treating clients in private practice.
