Home Education Friendly Professionals List

Due to a number of enquiries, the HEA are assembling a list of home education friendly professionals such as doctors, lawyers, psychiatrists, psychologists and counselors.

A few of our members have court dates coming up and they will be applying to gain permission to homeschool their children against the wishes of the other parent. Their issue is the lawyers frequently have no concept of homeschooling and are unable to represent their clients knowledgeably.

Also there are carers looking for psychologists and doctors who will listen with a HS sympathetic ear to help them solve their problems.

We believe it would be a useful to assemble a permanent list for our members and wish to ask your assistance to help us track down these professionals. Ideally, I would prefer this to be a recommendation-only list where a member has had a positive experience with the professional. Alternatively, if YOU are one of these professionals who is homeschooling your child – please feel free to recommend yourself!

Once I receive your recommendations I will ring the professionals to ensure they are happy to be included.

Recommendations/feedback/ideas can be emailed to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it or Ph: (07) 4157 2085
