People working in relational roles bring enormous skill, care, and commitment to their work. Sustaining that — across teams, over time, and within the real conditions of complex organisations — is something that needs deliberate attention and support.
Co-designed with organisations to meet the specific needs of their teams and context, I deliver workplace wellbeing programs that focus on building psychological safety, preventing burnout and vicarious trauma, and cultivating the resilience and connection that make meaningful work sustainable.
Workplace Wellbeing Programs
What it is
I design workplace wellbeing programs that are immersive, trauma-informed, and built around a genuine belief: that meaningful work can be nourishing and regenerative, even in complex and demanding settings.
Drawing on nervous system science, somatic practice, reflective inquiry, and 17 years of working directly within and alongside the social sector, these programs work at the level of teams and culture — not just individual practitioners. They attend to the relational and organisational conditions that shape how people experience their work together, alongside the practical tools that help people stay resourced and well.
All programs are co-designed with organisations, building on what's already there.
Co-designing trauma-informed workplace wellbeing programs across:
Frontline, team and practitioner programs: resourcing staff with practical tools for regulation, restoration, and sustainable practice
Leadership programs: supporting leaders to model, embed, and sustain a culture of care within their teams and organisations
Whole-of-organisation programs: building shared language, collective care practices, and the relational fabric that allows teams to thrive
Programs can be delivered as:
Single workshops: half or full-day, a nourishing and focused entry point
Multi-session series: building depth, practice, and culture incrementally across three to six sessions
Ongoing embedded support: sustained partnership woven into the ongoing life of the organisation.
All formats available in-person in Naarm (Melbourne) and online.
