Natcha is passionate about supporting young people and their families to develop self-understanding and to reach their full potential. She completed a Master of Professional Psychology from Monash University, followed by extensive experience working with children and teenagers in both therapeutic and diagnostic assessment capacity. 

She is particularly interested in neurodiversity (differences in the brain), such as Autism and ADHD. She works from a neuro-divergent affirming approach, viewing differences in the brain as natural variations rather than medical conditions. There might be stigma associated with assessments as putting a label on someone, however Natcha believes that everyone has their areas of strengths and areas of development, and assessments simply help us to discover them and give them a name if needed, to promote understanding, communication, and support.  

Natcha currently works at First Choice Allied Health for assessment services for children and teenagers only (Autism, ADHD, cognitive assessments). 

Outside of her assessment work, Natcha sees teen and adult clients for counselling through her own practice, Journey and Thrive Psychology.
