Cristina Fon
I am registered clinical psychologist with 23 years experience working across the public and private sector. I take a non-judgmental, authentic approach with an emphasis on strength-based, value-congruent and culturally responsive assessment and interventions. I work with clients aged 12 years and older. I am keen to help people realise how they can lead more fulfilling lives, and to remove obstacles towards achieving goals. I also conduct in person assessments for neurodevelopmental inquiries (ADHD, ASD, FASD) and provide psychoeducation and therapy sessions for parenting children with challenging behaviour. I am pleased to answer any questions before your first session, to see if I can be of help to you.
