Provisional Psychologist
Currently completing 3 month international transition program
Nicole Canin is a highly qualified psychologist with eighteen years of clinical experience. Nicole has recently moved from overseas and is currently completing her 3 month transition program to gain full registration within Australia. For the last ten years she has developed expertise in supporting families with infants, toddlers and children in primary school. She is excited about the potential for change during this stage of life, recognising that often if one can identify an issue earlier on one can make significant long-lasting psychological change. Her extensive training enables her to address issues or concerns with young children (0-5 years) including separation anxiety, challenges with eating or sleeping, enuresis and difficulties with regulating emotion. Nicole also has experience supporting primary school age children with a variety of challenges (including emotional, behavioural and developmental).
In addition, Nicole is passionate about working with parents to support their children’s development. She offers tailored parental guidance, helping parents to understand their children and how often minor adjustments in parenting can promote their self-esteem and emotional regulation. Nicole recently completed her PhD which focused on supporting parents with premature infants. Her specialised skills in this area allow her to promote sensitive caregiving by helping parents to understand the developmental capacities and vulnerabilities of these fragile infants.
In her work, Nicole draws on psychodynamic theory, systems theory, attachment theory, cognitive-behavioural techniques as well as the latest neurodevelopmental, infant and child research. Nicole’s clients would describe her as insightful, caring, warm, authentic and dedicated.
