My work draws on experience across a variety of healthcare settings and support networks, including: mental health (emergency, acute inpatient, and community settings), alcohol and drug services, NDIS, child protection, family services (mediation and Family supports), domestic violence support, aged care, guardianship & administration, housing, and justice services, particularly where multiple systems intersect.
My professional background includes qualifications in social work, nursing, and counselling. I have worked across metropolitan, regional, remote and diverse contexts throughout Western Australia and beyond, including Indigenous and multicultural settings, and bring a whole-of-system perspective shaped by understanding how decisions in one area can affect others.
I also work independently from GPs, clinical psychologists and allied health professionals. I am not affiliated with any government service, independent organisation or individual, this allows me to provide you with a non biased, person-centred approach.
