Scope Consultancy has moved to a new office now located at Suite 3/14 Carrara St Benowa. I am also conducting reunification therapy specialising in children who resist spending time with a parent and also rebuilding relationships after long periods of a parent being absent from a child. If you want to contact me about these services visit the website or send me a message.

So true connect before correct

If a child is “acting out” then they are not ready or able to process a correction. They first need you to help them feel safe and understood. Stop Unsafe behaviours but connect first and then coach your child towards new /better choices.

One of the most difficult behaviours to understand but one of the most serious that often leads to tragedy.

Domestic abuse isn’t always physical violence, coercive control is just one of the ways it manifests.

So proud to be able to support the Tara Brown Foundation and the work they do in domestic violence. I had the pleasure of meeting Natalie and Johnny under very difficult circumstances after Tara was murdered on the Gold Coast by her partner and father of their child. The work this foundation does is a credit to them as people and supporting their granddaughter through the most difficult time. Please ensure you support this foundation and others like it if you are able. I will continue to be an advocate for these foundations and now have the most lovely shirt and plaque that I will treasure.
