My name is Collett Smart. I am a psychologist, qualified teacher, speaker and internationally published author, with more than 25 years experience working in private and public schools, as well as in private practice.

You can watch my segments called ‘Wellbeing with Collett’ on my Your Tube channel, or catch me on radio, where I chat about teen and family issues. I also have a podcast called, ‘Raising Teens’, with Sydney’s Hope Media – the first of its kind in Australia!

I have taught and delivered psychology seminars around the world including; the USA, Australia, New Zealand, the UK, South Africa and Zimbabwe. I’m an Ambassador for International Justice Mission Australia. I currently live in Sydney, with my husband and 3 children, aged 13, 18 and 20 years-old.

My parenting book, ‘They’ll be Okay: 15 Conversations to help your child through troubled times’ is published by Hachette This and other book contributions can be found on the resources page.

I love working with young people and I am the editor of a parenting website – Raising Teenagers. The heart of which, is to bring Hope to parents of tweens and teens.

I’d love to work with you, your school or community group. Seminar topics can be found here.
