I’m Carly. I’m a Clinical Psychologist and Clinical Neuropsychologist who works with both children and adults. I’m a huge advocate for self-development, mental health and equal access to opportunity.
I’m passionate about people and their health. In terms of health, I believe in a holistic approach, where good health is measured by both physical and emotional wellbeing. I’ve always been interested in the power of the mind and in the ability to help others and psychology seemed like a natural career for me.
Life is an unexpected path of twists and turns and it’s all about how we navigate our experiences. We can use our experiences to grow or they can overwhelm and consume us. We are here to help guide and support that journey for you and we really hope you will join us.

Hi, I’m Derek. I am a Clinical Psychology registrar who works with both children and adults. My approach to therapy is empathic, non-judgemental and collaborative, and I aim to create a space where clients feel validated and safe.
I support people across the lifespan with a variety of presentations, including depression, anxiety (generalised, social, specific phobias, obsessive compulsive disorder, and trauma), and neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism spectrum disorder and ADHD.
To ensure clients receive interventions tailored to their individual needs, I draw on various evidence-based treatment approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Metacognitive Therapy (MCT), and Mindfulness Based Therapies.

Hello! I’m Courtney. I’m a clinical neuropsychologist registrar who works with people across the lifespan, from childhood to older adulthood. I have always had a keen interest in understanding the relationship between the brain and human behaviour and how our experiences in life impact our ability to live and express ourselves in the world.
I enjoy being of service to others and believe in the importance of adopting an individualised and holistic approach when conducting cognitive assessments. This allows for a greater understanding into a person’s capabilities and uniqueness. This approach coupled with tailored feedback and recommendations is provided to promote the achievement of one’s personal goals, improved functioning at school or work and ultimately, the ability to live a fulfilled life.
I hold a Doctoral degree in Clinical Neuropsychology and have experience working across a range of settings including Traumatic Brain Injury, Rehabilitation, Dementia, Drug and Alcohol related brain injury and paediatrics.
I’m Lisa. I’m a provisional psychologist who works with children and adults. My passion is to create a welcoming and compassionate space where an individual’s unique challenges and strengths can be safely explored. I strongly believe that each person can find their way forward if they are supported and discover new tools to do so. After working in the academic field for many years, I have recently completed my Master of Professional Psychology as I believe that I can foster change on an individual level to benefit community wellbeing. I am completing my final internship with Stepforth Psychology.
Hi, I’m Lin. I’m the practice manager for Stepforth Psychology. I have had the privilege of working for 20 years in the medical fraternity in administration on the Sunshine Coast. I have graduated with a degree in Business and Frontline Management. I am very focused on helping people while fostering a caring and compassionate understanding for their individual needs and care.
During my time on the Sunshine Coast I have had the pleasure of spending time helping out and volunteering at the local P & C, Church Soccer programs and as a women’s auxiliary member for the R.S.L. All of which has given me the compassion and drive to enhance my skills and knowledge in understanding how important it is to ‘give’.
For me during down time I love nothing more than to be with my husband and family, cooking, gardening and doing the many crafting ideas that I do.
