Danielle’s Professional Profile

As a Level 2 Registered Counsellor accredited by the Australian Counselling Association (ACA), I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to my practice. My educational background includes a Master of Counselling and a Diploma in Counselling, both earned from the esteemed Australian Institute of Professional Counsellors (AIPC). Additionally, I hold a Graduate Diploma in Law and Legal Studies, as well as a Bachelor of Social Sciences from La Trobe University.

My professional journey has been diverse, encompassing roles predominantly within the medical field ranging from a Medico-Legal Officer at a prominent Melbourne hospital to serving as a private medical secretary for various specialists across a broad spectrum of disciplines. This extensive experience has equipped me with a unique understanding of the complexities inherent in healthcare and the diverse needs of individuals seeking support.

Driven by a deep-seated passion for aiding others, I transitioned to counselling to further channel my desire to make a meaningful difference in people's lives. My multifaceted background has provided me with a versatile skill set and an array of resources to effectively assist individuals facing a myriad of challenges.

Furthermore, as a devoted mother of two teenage daughters, I have gained invaluable insights into the unique struggles and aspirations of young people. This firsthand experience informs my approach and enables me to provide tailored support to adolescents navigating the complexities of adolescence.
