Hi There. I'm Dr Lucy Coyne a Clinical Psychologist and Director of Discovery Psychology Services. I have been working as a psychologist for over 25 years. I completed my training at Griffith University and completed my PhD in Clinical Psychology. I am a Medicare provider (Clinical Psychology), a board certified supervisor and a Full Member of the Australian Psychological Society and the College of Clinical Psychologists.

I have worked in private practice in North Lakes for 11 years. Prior to this I worked for Queensland Health in services that provided assistance to adults, adolescents and children experiencing severe and complex mental health problems. I am available to work with people experiencing a range of life difficulties and also more complex mental health conditions. I have worked closely with the Australian Institute for Suicide Prevention (AISRAP). I believe in maintaining a strong connection with up-to-date research and do this by participating actively in the professional psychology community. I recently completed a 3 year core-training course in Intensive Short Term Psycho-dynamic Therapy. I have also trained in EMDR therapy.

I have a keen interest in nutrition as well as health psychology and integrative medicine approaches to wellness. In more recent years I have also become interested in mindfulness meditation and its benefits to mental health and application to eating disorders and the treatment of anxiety, depression and chronic pain. I also have developed a particular interest in the impact that nutrition and food on mental and physical health.
