About our founder

Emma has worked in mental health in a myriad of settings over the last 10 years, including schools, the public system through Eastern Health, non-profit sector (VACCA and Raise Mentoring Foundation) and in private practice. 

She opened Roar Psychology in 2023, creating a space for young people and families to access support, information and compassion. 

Emma enjoys working with children, adolescents, young adults and parents. She is experienced in diagnosing Autism, ADHD, learning difficulties and other neurodivergent presentations. She believes in a neuroaffirmative approach to diagnosis and support, whereby assessments assist in understanding of self, lead to acceptance, compassion and ultimately celebration of individual differences. 

Emma is a client-focused therapist who concentrates on the individual needs of each client and tailors her treatment approach accordingly. She is passionate about helping young people and families reach their potential, feel supported and empowered to be the best version of themselves they can be. She utilises a range of approaches including but not limited to; acceptance and commitment therapy, schema therapy, solution-focussed therapy and attachment-based therapy.

Emma is also a board-approved supervisor and enjoys providing supportive and challenging supervision to both early-career and experienced psychologists.
