Dr Toula is a Clinical psychologist and Jungian psychotherapist. She is also the originator of Story Image Therapy (SIT®) and SIT Shadow Work™. She has worked in schools, private practice, government and non-government organisations and corporate business for more than thirty years. Her Story Image Therapy(SIT®) and SIT Shadow Work™ teaching and counselling method incorporates social, psychological and historical information using interventions and therapies that are creative, evidence-based, ancient and narrative.Dr Toula particularly loves to use allegory: a story, picture or poem that contains hidden meanings and messages for people to decipher with herself or another trained Story Image Therapist. She uses evidence-based stories and images to help people to know themselves better, to work through unconscious issues and to identify hidden blockages in business, personal relationships and family dynamics.Dr Toula is published in books, magazines and academic journals including: Youth Voice Journal, Viewpoint, The Artifice, Immanence—Journal of Applied Myth, Story & Folklore, Feather Knight Books and Cambridge Scholars Press.She is a member of The CG Jung Society of Queensland, The International Depth Psychology Alliance, The International Association of Jungian Studies (IAJS), The Australian Society of Authors and The Queensland Writer’s Centre.Dr Toula is an international guest speaker, published author, and she has presented cyber-safety stories and images at Wakatipu State High School, New Zealand; and myth-based stories and images for positive mental health at Cambridge College, India. Dr Toula has additionally presented at numerous university and private conferences, business organisations and institutions in Australia.Dr Toula's Story Image Therapy (SIT)® and SIT Shadow Work™ are grounded in academic doctoral and practical Jungian action research. They are also based on her own lived experience of healing her personal 'shadows'. In particular, she used her own therapy on herself to heal her negative adolescent complexes. That is, unresolved issues that she had struggled with as an adolescent that caused her immense pain as an adult. Now, she is teaching others how to do their own shadow work using the SIT tools that she has developed and refined over the past fourteen years and are scientifically supported.
