How do you describe your Peer Supervision practice?

My peer supervision practice is grounded in the belief that lived experience is a powerful driver of systemic change. I work from a valuesbased, relational worldview aligned strongly with the WA Mental Health Commissions Peer Work Values, which have shaped my career. My approach blends reflective practice, operational insight, and strategic thinking, helping supervisors and teams strengthen both their identity as peer workers and their influence within organisations.

What information regarding your Peer Work, Lived Experience, and/or areas of interest do you want Peer Workers to know?

With a background of over 15 years in community services, I draw on experience building and leading multiple lived experience workforces across different organisations. I focus on creating structures, frameworks, and cultures where peer work can thrive safely, sustainably, and with integrity. My methodology centres on authenticity, curiosity, shared meaningmaking, and turning lived experiences (including mental health challenges and a late ADHD diagnosis) into collective learning. I support supervisors who want to grow peer workforces, influence systems, and embed genuine change in organisations."I’ve worked in community services for over 15 years, specialising in developing, managing, and growing lived experience workforces. My background includes direct support, leadership, and organisational development grounded in my own mental health journey and ADHD diagnosis. I’m passionate about strengthening peer work, advocating for its visibility, and designing frameworks that set peer workers up for success. I’m particularly interested in supporting people who want to grow peer teams, influence systems, and drive meaningful organisational change. I believe deeply that transforming lived experience into purpose and impact is powerful: for the people we support and for the workers themselves.
