John’s primary school teaching experience was followed by many years as a practicing developmental psychologist in country Victoria, Australia. A mid- career quantitative PhD from The University of Melbourne saw him return to his passion of teaching but this time in tertiary education. John was awarded the 2020 Australian Psychological Society’s National
Award of Distinction in recognition of his work at Monash University leading the Graduate E&D course and directorship of the Krongold Clinic, as well as four years as National Chair of the College of E&D.

Esther Roodenburg PhD BMus BA DipEd PGDipCounsP
After initial secondary teaching experience, followed by raising 5 children with her husband John, Esther’s many years as a community-based psychologist was then further explored within her own more qualitative PhD, into individual differences in ways of thinking. She joined John in the University setting, teaching counselling and clinical psychology to Educational and
Developmental graduate students. Her teaching included sharing her experiences of a broad case-based range of therapeutic approaches, with a practical application of well-developed theory-based psychological understandings. These are evident in Psychological Digs and also in a forthcoming book: A Psychologists Casebook, Ark House, 2022.
