The Clinic employs, on a contractual basis, a number of highly experienced clinicians known as 'Authorised Clinicians' . 

Authorised clinicians are from the professions of psychiatry, psychology and social work. Their primary role is to undertake assessments and provide reports for the Children's Court.

Professional development days

The Children's Court Clinic provides free seminars each year for its Authorised Clinicians. The activities are all based on the needs of clinicians, both from explicit requests, and as a response to needs found to be emerging from phone consultations and reviews of clinic assessments.

This is a great way of developing your skills, and participating in the clinic’s quality assurance program, as strongly supported by Justice Wood.

Participation in the clinic’s supervision and professional development is important proof of your maintenance of professional standards. We look forward to seeing you at these professional development and networking opportunities.
