Ms Ann Lancaster

Psychologist

Ann Lancaster completed a Master of Clinical Psychology in 1998 and has over 20 years clinical experience in a diverse range of areas across the lifespan including brain injury, pain management, adjustment to disability, mental health, and perinatal mental health. Ann was a part of the Psychology team at the Mater Mother’s Hospital between 2012 and 2020 developing a special interest in perinatal and infant mental health. With a strong background in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, she has been able to incorporate other theories such as Attachment Theory and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, including Mindfulness, to help her clients obtain the best possible outcomes. In recent years, Ann has trained to lead groups with Circle of Security founder Bert Powell, Perinatal Infant Research Institute training in Getting Ahead of Postnatal Depression, and the Together in Mind Perinatal and Infant Mental Health Day Program developed by Queensland Centre for Perinatal and Infant Mental Health. She has run groups such as Circle of Security and Getting Ahead of Postnatal Depression in the Parenting Support Centre at the Mater Mother’s Hospital. Ann continues to work in private practice in South Brisbane. Ann joined the Stillbirth CRE in 2020 to support the clinical aspects of the centre’s research, with most of her work presently in the area of care after stillbirth and newborn death (CASaND).
