Rowena’s Professional Background
Rowena has accumulated 25 years of experience across various child, family and adult health services and in private practice. She is passionate about helping adults aged 20 and beyond navigate a range of mental health challenges.
Expertise in Perinatal Mental Health
With extensive expertise in perinatal mental health, Rowena supports individuals and couples through the often complex journey from conception to parenthood. She offers compassionate care for challenges such as perinatal stress, anxiety, depression, birth trauma, perinatal loss, and infertility. In addition, Rowena helps parents nurture and strengthen a secure, loving relationship with their infant or child.
With over a decade of experience at Tresillian Family Care Centres, Australia’s leading early parenting service, Rowena provided support and interventions to parents one-on-one, as couples, within family sessions, and through group programs. She facilitated a range of group programs, including Circle of Security Parenting, Postnatal Anxiety and Depression Support, Parent-Infant Interaction, and Mindfulness Meditation. As an accredited Triple P facilitator, Rowena uses this evidence-based approach to empower parents with practical strategies to raise happy, confident kids, foster close relationships, reduce stress, and encourage positive behavior.
As a credentialed eating disorder clinician with the Australia New Zealand Academy for Eating Disorders (ANZAED), Rowena is particularly committed to providing specialised care in this area.
