Elise Dunn
Accredited Mental Health Social Worker
About
With over 20 years of experience, I provide expert mental health support tailored to individuals and families. I am passionate about working with those navigating life’s transitions, such as the self-discovery, family transitions, and journeys into parenthood. I specialise in supporting women, adolescents, working with neurodivergence, and gender and sexuality diverse people. My approach focuses on creating a safe environment for open dialogue, growth and healing. I provide an integrative approach, and am skilled in a range of therapeutic approaches.
