Our Team

 

Carrie Hatchett

I work with individuals and couples who are feeling stuck, hurt and angry in their relationships and have been impacted by addiction, affairs or chronic health conditions. I help you make sense of the past, heal from the pain, and reconnect with both yourself and your partner, discovering new levels of enjoyment and intimacy in your relationship.

Experience you can rely on…

I have dedicated my career to supporting others to have healthy and harmonious lives, relationships and workplaces. With more than 20 years experience, you can be sure that my experience is based on quality scientific knowledge and real-life application.

I have front-line experience working with addiction, trauma, domestic violence and relationship concerns in private and not-for-profit sectors in a range of locations around Queensland. Not only that, I have personal experience with having a blended family and the secondary impacts of having a child with a chronic health condition in my family. This experience underpins my warm, non-judgemental approach and my passion for helping couples and families thrive.
