About Me.

Renee Louise Brown

Clinical Psychologist: AHPRA, EMDRAA.

BHSc; BPsySc(Hons: I); MPsych(Clin).

Hi, I’m Renee - a clinical psychologist based in Spring Hill, Brisbane. I hold full registration through the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) as a psychologist, with endorsement in the area of clinical psychology. I am a member of the EMDR Association of Australia (EMDRAA).

I originally studied health science and worked for many years in the health industry, both in fitness and in nutrition. I found myself drawn towards behavioural sciences, and returned to study in 2015, completing a Bachelor of Psychological Science (Honours Class I) at the University of Queensland. While I was studying, I worked with young people suffering from severe and complex mental health conditions. Through this work I discovered a passion for clinical psychology, and so I completed further study, obtaining a Master of Psychology (Clinical) in 2021 from the University of the Sunshine Coast.

In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, landscape photography, painting and drawing.
