About me
I am Linda Beasley. I am a student at the University of Canberra, currently in my third year of studying a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. I am contributing to the 2020 Motivation and Emotion Book. I am passionate about improving the provision of mental health services in rural and remote communities, in particular services relating to suicide prevention and drug and alcohol addiction. I live on a farm in the Snowy Mountains of NSW, Kosciusko National Park is my play ground! I couldn't be happier when I have skis on my feet and a pack on my back.
