Jack Brett completed a combined Master/PhD in Clinical Neuropsychology at the University of Western Australia in 2024.
Jack’s research aims to understand and support the emotional functioning associated with neurodevelopmental challenges, like autism and ADHD. In addition to conducting research at The Kids, he works as a clinical neuropsychology registrar at Perth Children’s Hospital, assessing kids who struggle with intense emotions to work out what support they need. Jack wants to improve how we support children and families by creating practical tools to identify when children need additional support and how best to address these challenges.
By developing holistic, flexible, and tailored approaches, Jack believes his research will help guide, children, families, clinicians, and schools to better manage big emotions so that children, regardless of their diagnosis, can reach their potential.
