How do you describe your Peer Supervision practice?

My peer supervision practice is relational, reflective, and grounded in respect for lived experience as both knowledge and responsibility. I support peer workers to navigate the emotional labour of their roles while making sense of the organisational systems they work within.

My approach is shaped by my experience across the full arc of the mental health system; from frontline practice through to senior leadership, and now national and state advisory roles. This allows supervision to hold both the lived realities of peer work and the practical constraints of power, boundaries, ethical tensions, and leadership expectations.

As someone from a multicultural background, I am attentive to how culture, identity, stigma, and belonging intersect with peer roles, often in subtle or unspoken ways. I balance deep reflection with practical sense-making, supporting clarity, confidence, and sustainability.

My work has been recognised through the 2025 WA Mental Health Award (Lived Experience Impact & Inspiration) and the AASW Social Worker of the Year Award, and through finalist recognition for the R U OK? Barbara Hocking Memorial Award and the WA Multicultural Awards (Sir Ronald Wilson Leadership Award), reflecting impact across practice, leadership, and systems influence.

I am a middle-aged white heterosexual woman who is aware of her current privilege and a mother, grandmother, wife, daughter, and friend. I have been using my Lived Experience in Peer Work, since before there was such a thing. I innately knew the value of Peer Work from my own firsthand experiences of receiving it informally. Without it I would not have been able to get out of mental health services, get off all psychiatric medication, work on my personal recovery, and reclaim my citizenship. My Lived Experience distress has come from childhood trauma, institutionalization, and adversity followed by adult experiences of poverty, homelessness, domestic violence, and unhealthy relationships. It has all manifested itself in experiences of voice hearing, dissociation, depression, and anxiety.
