Kate is a member of the administrative team at Birchtree Centre, where she enjoys supporting clients and clinicians and helping ensure the practice runs smoothly.
Originally from Brisbane, Queensland, Kate completed the first years of her undergraduate studies at the University of Queensland before relocating to Sydney. She is currently completing her Honours year in the Bachelor of Psychological Science at Australian Catholic University and is undertaking her Lifeline Digital Crisis Supporter placement hours as part of her accreditation as a Crisis Supporter.
Kate is passionate about mental health and wellbeing and hopes to pursue a career as a psychologist, supporting individuals through evidence-based therapeutic practice. She is particularly interested in youth mental health and trauma.
Outside of work and study, Kate enjoys dance, music, makeup artistry, travelling, and following a range of sports, particularly Formula 1. She values creativity, connection, and lifelong learning, and brings warmth, enthusiasm, and a people-focused approach to everything she does.
Sophie joined Birchtree in January 2025 and works across both Birchtree Centre and the Birchtree Foundation. As a member of the administrative team, she helps keep the practice running smoothly, supporting clients, clinicians, and day-to-day operations. She also serves as Project Coordinator and Research Officer for the Foundation, where she contributes to the delivery, evaluation, and ongoing development of the Empowered Self-Defence (ESD) Program.
With a background in psychology and experience spanning administration, research, communications, and project coordination, Sophie brings a thoughtful, organised, and people-focused approach to her work. Whether she is coordinating projects behind the scenes or helping clients access support, she is passionate about creating positive experiences and meaningful impact.
Outside of work, Sophie is an avid reader, keen traveller, sports enthusiast, and proud owner of an English Staffy. An old soul at heart, she enjoys music, books, and spending time with friends and family.
Yi Sing joined the administrative team at Birchtree in July 2026. She is currently studying a Masters of Counselling and Psychotherapy and is working towards becoming a therapist one day.
Throughout her career, she has worked as a researcher and evaluator in the not-for profit spaces.
When she’s not working at Birchtree, Yi Sing loves going on walks and being in nature. She also loves spending time pottering around the house and hanging out with her beloved cat, Kaya.
Sarah joined the administrative team at Birchtree in November 2025. She admires the committed members of her team and volunteers for Birchtree’s Empowered Self-Defence program.
When she is away from the office, Sarah dedicates her time to the beach. In an ideal world, she makes it to the beach for a quick swim after every workday. It is here where she honours her beginnings as a swim coach where she passionately taught young children to trust their confidence in water.
Currently, Sarah is a fourth-year Law and Communications student at the University of Technology Sydney. At university, she gained strong analytical skills and a commitment to environmental and social justice.
Bec joined Birchtree in April 2026, bringing with her more than a decade of experience across advertising, and media and communications. Throughout her career, she has worked as a media strategist, digital marketer, and journalist, developing a strong foundation in communication, relationship-building, and strategic thinking.
Driven by a longstanding interest in mental health, Bec has recently returned to university to complete a Graduate Diploma in Psychology, with the goal of becoming a Clinical Psychologist. At Birchtree, she combines operational excellence with warmth, curiosity, and a genuine commitment to ensuring every client and clinician feels supported.
Outside of work, Bec enjoys spending time with her cat, Prince, working on her debut novel, and exploring Sydney’s food scene — ideally with a bunch of small plates and a glass of wine in hand.
