Buckle up, folks! It's story time, and this one's a real adventure.

For over a decade, I've been on a quest to champion the little heroes of our world. From the understanding what makes people tick to developing and educating ways kids interact with money, I've traversed through various industries, soaking up knowledge like a sponge in a kiddie pool.

But what fuels my journey, you ask? Well, let's dive into the heart of it.

You see, I'm no stranger to the world of neurodiversity. As a parent, a sibling, and even in my own story, I've danced with the delightful diversity of minds. It's this personal journey that sparked a fire within me to understand, to connect, and to empower.

My quest for understanding led me down the winding path of counselling, where I discovered my knack for decoding the language of emotions. But hey, I'm not one to rest on my laurels! I'm a perpetual student, always hungry for knowledge like a hobbit in a bakery.

And boy, have I racked up some scrolls of wisdom along the way! I've earned certifications in everything from the mystical realms of play-based therapy to the heroic domains of trauma-informed care. Zones of regulation? Check. Sensory integration practices? Double check. I've even mastered the ancient art of mental health first aid!

But wait, there's more! As a certified NDIS registered behaviour support practitioner, I've sworn an oath to champion the rights of every hero in our midst. With my trusty working with children check, working with vulnerable people check, and a national police check hotter than fresh donuts, I'm ready to tackle any challenge that comes my way.

But enough about work – let's talk about the real me. When I'm not saving the day, you'll find me lost in the magical worlds of sci-fi and the supernatural. From wielding lightsabers in Star Wars to casting spells in Harry Potter, I'm a big kid at heart.

I like to keep both body and mind in tip-top shape, whether it's jogging through the streets or exercising my brain with audio-books (hands-free for LEGO building, of course). I'm a creative soul with a passion for making the world a brighter, more colourful place.

So there you have it – the tale of a behavioural therapist with a heart as big as the universe and a spirit as boundless as the cosmos. Ready to join me on this epic quest? Let's make some magic together!

My Ethos

So now that you know a little about me, I want to let you know some more serious things. Firstly, I’m here to help uncover the unique needs of every individual I work with. Think of me as a detective, but instead of solving crimes, I’m all about solving the mysteries behind behaviours and emotions.

I’ve got a fun secret: there’s no such thing as a “bad” behaviour or emotion! Every reaction is like a clue, revealing strategies people use to navigate tricky situations. My job? To understand these clues and turn them into opportunities for positive growth.

Imagine this: together, we’re on an adventure to transform challenges into triumphs. We’ll dig deep to uncover those unmet needs and create supportive, empowering solutions. With a dash of creativity and a whole lot of compassion, we’ll turn coping strategies into powerful tools for success.

Join me on this journey of discovery and transformation. Let’s celebrate every step forward and make this an exciting path to positive change!
