PSYCHOLOGIST

BA PSYCH(Hons), MProfPsych, PhD, MAPS

Megan is the co-founder and director of Into Minds and a registered psychologist. She holds a Master of Professional Psychology and a PhD, and has worked extensively in educational settings supporting children, families, and schools. Megan has experience in the assessment and understanding of neurodevelopmental differences, including autism, ADHD, intellectual disability, and learning differences.

Megan takes a neuroaffirming and strengths-based approach to assessment and support. She is passionate about helping families better understand their child’s unique neurotype, learning profile, and support needs, while recognising and celebrating each child’s strengths, interests, and capabilities. She particularly enjoys exploring how children learn best and helping parents and educators understand the “why” behind a child’s experiences, behaviours, and challenges.

Megan is known for her warm, kind, and approachable manner, and values building respectful, collaborative relationships with children, families, and educators. She aims to provide practical, meaningful recommendations that support children both at home and at school. Megan also values writing concise, easy-to-understand reports in plain language so families feel informed, supported, and empowered following assessment.
