Margaret – Our New Therapist

On October 10, 2022

Welcome Margaret to the Amazing Kids Team…

We are so happy that Margaret has just joined Amazing Kids. Margaret completed her Bachelor of Arts majoring in Psychology and her Graduate Diploma of Psychology  Advanced (4th year Honours Equivalent) at Monash University. During this time, she wrote a qualitative research project which focused on exploring public perceptions of parenting and Autism among Australian parents of children with non-ASD children. Margaret has previously worked as an Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA) therapist, providing early intervention for young children with ASD in various settings at clinics, home and kindergartens. She is committed to making a difference through early intervention and evidence based practice. She highly values the development of children, exercising empathy and creativity through play and learning. Margaret’s experience as a therapist has inspired her to some days pursue a career as a child psychologist.
