Dr Rachel Hannam, Clinic Director North Brisbane Psychologists
PhD/Masters(OrgPsych), GradCertGestalt, GradDipEd, BSocScPsych(Hons), MAAPi
Rachel is a psychologist with 23 years of experience. She holds a Masters in Organisational Psychology and her PhD research looked at professional burnout (2006). Having then tracked down great mentors and trained in clinical modalities, Rachel started North Brisbane Psychologists (NBP) in 2012, which has since grown to become one of the largest psychology practices in Brisbane with a team of over 40 practitioners.
Prior to 2012, Rachel consulted to a range of community, government and private organisations facilitating conflict management, leadership development, psychometric profiling, executive coaching, and culture change. Rachel continues her organisational consulting to this day, while also providing a supportive professional nesting-box for her large team of private practice clinicians.
In a ‘previous life’, Rachel was a primary school teacher in a ‘tough school’. She ran quite quickly back to psychology! She now has three teenage children, a naughty cat, a mild book-buying addiction, and performs stand-up comedy occasionally. Although very serious about her profession and the topic of leadership in mental health, Rachel likes to crack a joke almost every chance she gets.
