Stuart Lokhee is a Clinical Psychologist with a specialisation in police officers and first responders. He brings over 25 years of operational experience with the NSW Police Force and Australian Federal Police, including two United Nations peacekeeping deployments in East Timor and the Solomon Islands.

Stuart understands police culture, operational stress, cumulative trauma, investigations, shift work, and the pressure of high-stakes decision-making because he has worked within those systems himself.

His clinical work is practical, confidential, and grounded in real-world experience, not theory alone.

Stuart also has a background as a high school teacher and Restorative Justice Convenor with Juvenile Justice NSW, giving him strong experience working with young people, families, and complex behavioural presentations. He is an experienced Child psychologist.
