Dr Stephen Fyson
Education
Bio
Dr Stephen Fyson is a Christian psychologist by trade and a Christian teacher at heart, which means that he has taken the opportunity to study psychology, education, and theology, culminating in a PhD where he had the freedom to explore all three.
Dr Fyson’s work has been as a youth pastor, addictions counsellor, community health manager and planner, and being a ‘schoolie’. This last calling has been for over 35 years, in many diverse roles in Christian schools – counselling psychologist, teacher, developer, and principal. Dr Fyson continues to work as a Christian educational consultant in this field, while also teaching in the Christian tertiary ministry.
