“When all else fails, call a social worker.”

Parenting a child with unique needs is a journey no one prepares you for. It can feel heavy, lonely, and overwhelming — but it doesn’t have to stay that way.

I’ve been where you are. I’ve lived the fear, the guilt, the exhaustion, and the isolation. And I’ve found a way through. Now, I help families like yours take back control, find clarity, and create a calmer, more confident path forward.

When there’s no hope, no plan, no support

If you feel like no one is listening and you’re drowning in decisions you don’t know how to make — you don’t have to figure this out alone.

When services are running your life

If your calendar is full of appointments, your wallet is stretched thin, and your child is exhausted — it’s time to take back control. Together, we’ll design a simpler, calmer life that actually works for you and your child.

When you’ve tried everything and still feel stuck.

If you’ve worked with every service but still feel unheard or unseen, you deserve a fresh perspective. Let’s look at your situation with clear eyes and find the change you’ve been craving.

When no one understands you

If you’re tired of explaining your child’s needs over and over and still not being taken seriously — I’m here to listen, to understand, and to help you find the solutions you’ve been searching for.

When guilt is eating you alive

If you feel guilty about your child’s diagnosis, or even about wanting a break, I’ve been there. Together, we’ll release the guilt and find a way forward with peace and purpose.

When people don’t understand your child

If strangers stare or make comments about your child — about the way they look, eat, walk, or speak — it can break you inside. I’ll help you build confidence, create effective strategies, and rediscover your strength.

When you’re blamed for your child’s challenges

If family members have made you feel like your child’s disability is your fault, I’ll help you change that story. You’ll get the tools and language to protect your peace and stand tall in your truth.

When you think you’ve done something wrong

If you lie awake wondering if you caused this — if you smoked, drank, or didn’t eat the “right” foods — hear this: it’s not your fault. Let’s release that shame together.

When you don’t have an NDIS plan

If your child is aged 0–65 and you’re not sure how to start the NDIS process, I’ll guide you every step of the way. From paperwork to meetings, you’ll feel confident about the path ahead.

When you feel bullied by providers

If something about your services feels “off,” or you think you’re being overcharged or underserved, you deserve clarity. Sometimes you just need a second opinion — I’ll give you one, honestly and without judgment.

When the NDIS feels impossible

From reviews to planning meetings, I’ve been there — overwhelmed, unheard, and exhausted. As an NDIS Specialist Support Coordinator, I’ll help you prepare, plan, and walk into those meetings with confidence.

When you feel alone

Parenting a child with unique needs can be isolating. But you don’t have to do this alone anymore. Let’s connect, and let me walk this road with you.

When you’re ready for something to change

If deep down you know things can’t keep going the way they are — if you’re ready for a shift but don’t know where to start — this is your moment.

When you need a break

If you don’t know who to trust or how to take a break because it’s scary to leave your child with someone else, I’ll help you plan for this milestone — safely and with confidence.

When your child leaves school

If your teen is ready for a day program but you’re unsure where to start, or you’re hesitant to transition because services keep closing, I can guide you through this next step. Together, we’ll find the right program and help your teen feel included and supported.

When you need support designing an NDIS plan

I learnt the hard way. My son’s funding fell short for two years, and his day program even sent him home until funds were approved. That’s why I now help families like yours design NDIS plans that work — and show you how to do it for yourself, too.

Because I’ve been there

Everything I’ve written here? I’ve lived it. I’ve walked this path, felt the fear, the grief, the guilt, and the isolation. And I’ve found a way through.

When you take ownership of your journey and get the right support, everything changes — for you, your child, and your family.
