My life metaphor is best summarised by Snoopy, from the Peanuts comic strip. Snoopy is at one time playful, curious, imaginative and subject to flights of fantasy, often spending time in the clouds and he has trouble talking about himself in the third person. Snoopy is well-grounded and skilful in establishing strong relationships. I think Snoopy and LEGO\u00ae SERIOUS PLAY\u00ae (LSP) have a synergy that epitomise the connection between play, construction, flights of fancy, and growth mindset.<\/p>\n

I have been a psychologist for over 30 years, and I predominantly work with children and adolescents, their families, and the organisations that support them. I have worked in private practice and a wide range of educational institutions, from early childhood centres to post-graduate university. I have a keen interest in the connections individuals make and the stories they build along the way. I believe LSP provides the opportunity to utilise a process and an amazing resource for both personal and organisational growth. I am a recent LSP devotee having been reluctantly dragged into the LSP world \u2013 only discover its power and appeal.<\/p>\n

My passion is in assisting people to grow and develop. When individuals and organisations, are given opportunities to grow they can realise their potential as powerfully competent people who live positive and rewarding lives. We all benefit from the assistance of others, and it is a privilege to be invited into another’s world, walking alongside them for a short time.<\/p>\n
