Nicole Watts

Nicole Watts has a Bachelor of Psychology and a Bachelor of Arts. She has been on both sides of the mental health divide, having worked on projects in the mental health sector and having a long history of depression and anxiety herself. She spent fifteen years in the public service in a statistical role, writing around her work commitments. Her history with depression has included long stints in both public and private hospitals, multiple courses of electro-convulsive-therapy, and many cognitive and pharmacological treatments. Running and time in nature keep her grounded. She is kept alive by her family and friends, a fantastic treatment team, and a rescued blue heeler-staffy cross, who rescued her right back.
