PENNY ATHERTON PSYCHOLOGY

  I am endorsed as a Clinical Psychologist and as an Educational and Developmental Psychologist. This means that the Psychology Board of Australia recognises me as a practitioner with additional qualifications and advanced supervision practice over and above the usual pathway for registration as a psychologist. I have been working as a psychologist in South Australia for over 25 years.

​

 For much of my career, I have worked with children, adolescents, and their families. I really enjoy the challenge of engaging with kids and teens of all temperaments and developmental levels and strive to achieve the best outcomes for those with whom I work. I value psycho-educational assessments to inform how best to support learning and engagement and understand challenges.

 Over the years, I have worked in a range of educational psychology and clinical psychology roles in South Australia, conducting assessments and supporting people of all ages (including adults) to achieve positive change through therapy.  

I welcome all kinds of diversity (including LGBTIQ+, neurotype).
