Kristy Cleary

Psychologist/Director

I became a psychologist to help kids. As I progressed through my training and internship, and own life experiences, my passion developed for working with children, as well as working with all ages who have experienced trauma.

The first thing people notice about me is my hair colour and colourful clothes. In addition to all the colour and brightness, you will find I am a caring and understanding kid at heart, who enjoys working with children, adolescents, and their families. I feel so very privileged to work with my clients and support them on their life journey.

Helen Gunter

Psychologist

I fell into psychology through completing first year university Psychology units. This was on my pathway to becoming a sports nutritionist. Turns out I loved psychology more. I trained in Forensic Psychology and have worked with both juvenile and adult populations. In doing this work I realised I could be more helpful in working "upstream" with children, teens, families and schools to keep kids engaged and families supported. I have worked in community, custodial environments and schools and follow the philosophy that "Kids do well if they can".

My practice is informed by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Collaborative and Proactive Solutions, Solution focussed therapy and Narrative Therapy. My approach is warm, affirming, strengths focussed and collaborative.

Elle Snoswell

Provisional Psychologist

As a dedicated and experienced provisional psychologist here at Unearth, I will walk alongside you and your child, offering tools and strategies to foster healthy psychological development and guide you through any challenges that arise. With a client-centred and holistic approach, I tailor therapy to meet the unique needs of each family and child, emphasising connection and understanding.

Therapy with me is all about meeting kids where they are at and connecting with them on their level. Whether through thoughtful conversation, creative expression, or play therapy, I seek to create an individualised approach to therapy in an environment that fosters a sense of comfort and curiosity. With a gentle compassionate, strengths-based approach, I look to find and develop each child’s unique strengths to promote resilience and growth.

Together we will navigate challenges and create a foundation for lasting wellbeing.
