Eliza Connors
Eliza is a Provisional Psychologist currently completing a Master of Psychology (Educational and Developmental) at Australian Catholic University. She takes a warm, collaborative, and person-centred approach, working with children, adolescents, and young adults to support their emotional wellbeing and development. Eliza has a strong interest in understanding each individual and creating a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard and comfortable.
Eliza is available for individual therapy, and diagnostic assessment (IQ, ADHD, Autism) for children, adolescents, and adults. She splits her placement across our Coburg practice and one of our affiliated schools.
Please note that for all clients aged 17 and younger, a parent session is required as the initial appointment. This allows Eliza to obtain developmental history of the client and to understand the presenting concerns from a parent's perspective.
Teenage clients can attend the initial session but this will be split into two halves; first half parent and Eliza and second half client/client and parent with Eliza.
