Libba is an experienced trauma-informed psychotherapist and a Director of Openground and is one of the first people trained to teach MBSR in Australia. She has worked for Openground for the past 18 years as a teacher and the Director of Organisational Programs, where she has offered many successful mindfulness and leadership programs in corporate, government, health and community sectors. 

She has also pioneered a customised MBSR program for veterans and their family members which has been independently researched showing significant reductions in PTSD, psychological distress, anger reactivity, and improved relationships. 

Libba has also led the first 8 week mindfulness course to Federal Parliamentarians and staffers and sits on the Australian Expert panel to the Global Mindfulness Initiative which supports the cultivation of mindfulness and compassion amongst legislators worldwide to shift political culture and elicit wiser policy making.

Libba brings a very down to earth manner to all her teaching, with much warmth and a sense of humour and has long practice experience in the Vipassana tradition. Prior to that Libba worked as a litigation lawyer for 14 years, including at partnership level, and because of this background, has been passionate about bringing mindfulness into organisations and opening people to the best in themselves and their lives. She understands the realities and practicalities of practising mindfulness in daily life and work, and is passionate about sharing the possibilities for self discovery and freedom that mindfulness can offer.
