Clinical Neuropsychologist Sunshine Coast 

​

​​

Dr Laura Bennett is a dual-endorsed Clinical Neuropsychologist and Clinical Psychologist based in Buderim on the Sunshine Coast. She has a longstanding interest in the ways thinking, emotion, and lived experience intersect, particularly in the context of mental health, trauma, and neurological change.

​​

Dr Bennett completed her undergraduate psychology training at the University of Sydney, followed by a combined Doctorate in Clinical Neuropsychology and Clinical Psychology at The University of Queensland. She has worked across both hospital and private practice settings and brings a depth of experience in complex clinical presentations.

​​

Dr Bennett’s work focuses on understanding how a person’s thinking and mood are affecting everyday life, particularly where changes occur in the context of mental health conditions, trauma histories, medical illness, neurological injury, or significant life stressors. She does not provide diagnoses; rather, her role is to help individuals and their treating teams gain a clearer understanding of cognitive functioning and to support informed care planning in collaboration with referring medical practitioners.

​

Alongside assessment, Dr Bennett offers therapeutic work, with a focus on individuals with complex or longstanding mental health presentations. Her approach is integrative, thoughtful, and strengths-based, with a strong emphasis on understanding the whole person rather than relying on checklist-style formulations.
