Over the years, Lynette has worked in various psychology roles, including with the Education Department, Glenside Hospital’s Rural and Remote Mental Health Unit, and in private practice. She has also worked at Headspace in Murray Bridge and Ireach Rural Health, contributing to improving mental health outcomes for children, youth, and adults in the region.
