Wesley began his career working as both a school counselor and a psychologist in private practice. These roles gave him an appreciation for what young people and their families need to navigate various issues within the school environment.
Wesley eventually transitioned into private practice in Stanmore, where he worked with a number of adults and young people who had experienced significant trauma. Helping these clients reprocess their experiences and find new meaning in their lives became an area of particular interest for Wesley’s clinical work.
In his downtime, Wesley loves listening to good music, spending time outdoors, and getting up early to watch the English Premier League. Having recently moved to the Blue Mountains, Wesley has enjoyed joining the Riverlands team and saying goodbye to inner-city traffic!
Wesley works in Blaxland on Wednesdays and Penrith on Thursdays.
