She is currently engaged primarily at the postgraduate level at The University of Queensland, including oversight of the initial Clinical Psychology practicums at the UQ Psychology Clinic. Her clinical practice skills (in clinical psychology and clinical neuropsychology) are maintained via locum roles, consulting in aged care facilities, & private practice. She also provides supervision to those engaging in furthering their training in psychology.Teaching to date has encompassed core units within psychology (undergraduate level), as well as postgraduate geropsychology, assessment, & health psychology.Her research initially focused on carers of people with dementia, financial capacity, and training in the management of BPSD. More recently it has turned to anxiety in Parkinson's disease and dementia, and her PhD topic considered wisdom (both its conceptualisation and measurement). More recently she is also considering the topic of nature and wellbeing. Her particular area of interest is geropsychology & she sees her skills as both a neuropsychologist & clinical psychologist being well-suited to this area. She is also interested in curriculum, teaching, & supervision issues within the field of psychology.Leander presents at conferences, psychology meetings, & community group meetings throughout the year.
