As well as counselling Judith lectures in human services and social work with Queensland University of Technology and values her time with up and coming professionals of the future.

She attempts to assist clients to believe in their ability to change and their inherent and unique personal gifts. By undertaking this process clients subsequently enrich their lives through deeper examination of who they are and how they interact with their partners, families and the wider community. Judith has kept up to date with current theories and trends by continuing to study, completing a Master of Social Work in 2000 and a Doctor of Social Science in 2007.
