OccupationPsychiatrist

Carolyn Quadrio is an Australian psychiatrist and the recipient of the 2024 Order of Australia award for her "significant service to psychiatry".[1] An Adjunct Professor at the University of New South Wales, Quadrio is a Fellow of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (FRANZCP).[2]

Quadrio has made significant contributions to both fields of Psychiatry and Family Therapy.[3] In 1989, she co-founded and coordinated the Masters of Psychotherapy postgraduate program at University of New South Wales collaborating with The Prince of Wales Hospital.[4][5]

Education

[edit]

Born in Perth, Western Australia, Quadrio studied at the University of Western Australia, receiving a Bachelor degree in Medicine and Surgery (1966). Awarded a Diploma in Psychological Medicine (with Distinction) from The University of Otago, New Zealand (1971). She was the first extramural student accepted into the program.[6] She became a Fellow of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists in 1973 and a member of the Faculty of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (RANZCP) in 1987. In 1998 Quadrio completed her Doctoral dissertation at the University of Sydney.[7]

Career and research

[edit]
Graduation, 1966

Quadrio's research spans from women’s mental health to feminism and gender analysis of psychiatry in Australia. She is also known for working against the abuse of children[8] especially in religious institutions, the long-term sequelae of childhood sexual abuse, and psychiatric issues in domestic violence.[9]

Apart from academic researches, Quadrio is a therapist, educator, advocate on injustice and ethical issues as well as boundary violations.[10]

Awards

[edit]

Quadrio was awarded the Order of Australia in 2024 for her "significant service to psychiatry".[1] In 2021, she received the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists NSW Meritorious Service Award.[11]

Early career in psychiatry

[edit]

Quadrio sought to change the dominant, masculine-centred paradigm in psychiatry.[12][13] A perspective that pervaded the 1960's theories and methods of family therapy,[14] in particular the Freudian model which saw children separated from parents during therapy sessions. Quadrio invited parents to sessions in order to understand their broader social context[15] insisting females in therapy needed different considerations to males. Previously (and concurrently), clinicians "characterised male attributes as the norm and female attributes – like emotionalism – deviant behaviour, neurosis, so called", when assessing patients.[14] Quadrio stated that discovering family therapy was critical to her professional development.[15]

The marginalisation of women in psychiatry led to Quadrio's future research on female representation in her field.[16] Following the 1988 Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists Annual Congress she publicly raised the issue by criticising the lack of female plenary speakers.[14] At the 1990 Congress, Quadrio was invited to present Development, Gender and Psychotherapy;[17] very few women in that 26-year history received that opportunity.[14] Quadrio was the sole Australian presenter at the 20th Annual Congress of the European Association of Behavioural Therapists held in Paris, 1990.[18] She was amongst the first scientific exchanges arranged by the Australia - France Endowment fund. During a civil rights protest outside the conference where placards referencing the violations of the rights of man, Quadrio, held up her own slogan in French "women also have rights".[18]
