Instructor Bio

I have over 20 years experience in combined health and community service, predominantly with children, young people and families. I’m passionate about working in the local community and supporting individuals and families to be their best selves. My aim is to encourages a calm, supportive and secure atmosphere for therapy.

I’m currently completing a Master of Counselling (AIPC), and have already completed a Bachelor of Behavioural Studies (majoring in Psychology) and a Graduate Certificate in Management.

"As an educator and someone who has explored many resilience training programs, I have never seen a program as comprehensive, yet so easy to use. The PR6 makes sense. However, what stood out the most for me, is the ALL concept that RFA equipped me with to use in my professional and personal interactions. This is the first time I have actually 'used' the learning and tools obtained from a training course. The ALL concept is simple, it works..."

"This is the proactive preventative program I’ve been waiting for! It enables me to work more effectively in the space of resilience with myself and others, on a personal and professional level. As it has structured actions with applicable language examples and easy to follow modules. The pre- and post support is inclusive and encouraging and the course content and resources are of an exceptional high quality. I really enjoyed completing the course and I now feel more informed and confident engaging others in resilience talks. Thank you!

"The Resilience First Aid Responder Certification course enables us to hone our appreciation for ourselves and others, reaffirm experiential understanding of the power of listening, and honour humanity’s need and desire for positive connection. This course is the ideal fundamental for all seeking to strengthen their capacity to appreciate, listen and lift; and is the ideal refresher complement to the CReC and HART courses.
