New School Counsellor
Hi! My name is Julia Larby and I am the new Student and Family Counsellor at the school.
I have a Masters of Counselling degree from the University of Canberra, as well as a Bachelor of Nursing degree, which has led me to have an extensive career working in the mental health sector.
I have worked with individuals, young people, and families in various mental health settings, providing one-on-one therapy and consulation, case management, and psychoeducation and health promotion.
I have a passion for working with children and their families to improve their wellbeing. I work from a client-centred perspective, and utilise tools from various therapy approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness.
I will be working at the school on Mondays and Tuesdays, and can be reached via email: julia.larby@mccg.org.au
I look forward to working with you and your school for the remainder of the year, and into next year!
