Meet Your Psychologists
Robyn Winchester
B Psych; M Psych (Clin); M Crim; (MAPS)
Robyn is a Clinical Psychologist experienced in treating children, adolescents, adults, and families. She has worked in government and non-government sectors including Youth Justice, Youth Detention, adolescent and adult inpatient mental health services, dementia services, and private practice.
Robyn is now primarily focused on working with adults on an individual basis.
Robyn is passionate about helping her clients regain their sense of purpose and has seen happiness and confidence increase as people experience renewed fulfillment.
Working from a positive psychology perspective, Robyn believes that when individuals connect with their true passions and engage in activities which bring them joy their self-awareness, motivation, and zest for life begin to re-surface. She also believes that gaining an understanding of cognitive and physiological processes gives clients a greater sense of control over their lives, not only in relation to their thoughts, emotions and behaviours but also over their physical responses to life stressors.
Robyn gained her Bachelor of Psychology with Honors from the University of Newcastle, followed by a Master of Criminology and a Master of Clinical Psychology at Bond University in Queensland. She then undertook a two-year supervised Registrar program to gain endorsement as a Clinical Psychologist. Robyn is fully registered with the Australian Health Practitioners Regulation Agency (AHPRA) and holds membership of the Australian Psychological Society (MAPS).
In addition to working in a job she is passionate about, Robyn loves road-trips, and spending time in and around our beautiful waterways.

Louise Pratt
Registered Psychologist GDip (Psych), PGDip (Psych), B.Ed, Assoc. MAPS
Louise is a Registered Psychologist. She completed her Bachelor of Education at University of Western Sydney and then returned to study Psychology at Charles Sturt University and the University Of Wollongong, completing a Diploma and Post-Graduate Diploma of Psychology in 2014.
With over 20 years’ experience working with children, adolescents and families both as an educator and as a School Counsellor in NSW Public Schools from 2014. Louise works within a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy framework and uses evidence-based interventions.
Louise is qualified to carry out child behavioural assessments and IQ testing. She has also trained in many Parent Programs including Engaging Adolescents and 123 Magic Parenting Program.
Louise is qualified and experienced in Neurodiverse Assessments & Therapy for Children, Adolescents, and Adults. This includes assessments for Autism, ADHD, and learning difficulties. Louise appreciates the challenges facing neurodiverse persons, both during the assessment process and thereafter.
Louise will endeavor to assist you by providing a thorough clinical assessment, alongside therapy tailored to your unique presentation of neurodiversity, so that you can engineer a life that suits you. In working with clients, Louise ensures that assessment and therapy is non-judgemental, empathic, safe, geared towards individual needs, and is collaborative.
Valuing the expertise of clients as the experts in their life, and the client's own values are central to any recommendations or support. Louise focuses on creating a safe space for the neurodivergent to be themselves; stimming, flapping, fidgeting, and all.
Louise especially enjoys working with children and families of all ages and believes that effective psychological assessment and intervention can result in positive life changes to children and their families.
