"Sometimes the most powerful support comes from someone who truly understands.”
Our peer mentors are at the heart of what we do. Through connection, encouragement, and lived experience, they help others feel less alone and more confident moving forward.
We’re excited to introduce a few of the incredible people helping make that happen every day 🌱

Yoshi - "If it’s outside and sporty, I’m there! Wanna go skimboarding, hiking, bouldering, play pickleball, (or anything else that comes to mind), well what are you waiting for? Let’s get in there like swimwear! I also have a great sense of humour; I love a good belly laugh and some good-natured banter. I also deeply enjoy creative endeavors like crocheting, knitting, and reading all sorts of books to learn new things and immerse myself in magical worlds.
Adventures are fun but I also love hearing people’s stories, learning about different cultures and perspectives. I get a lot out of deeply getting to know someone; forming a strong connection, learning what motivates them, what their struggles are, and how I could be supportive".

Lee-Ann - "I'm here to offer a safe, supportive space where you can just be yourself. My approach is shaped by training in trauma-informed care, coaching, breathwork, somatic practices and yoga.
I'm passionate about simple everyday ways to support wellbeing and mental health, such as movement, breath and nutrition.
My focus is on creating a space where people feel safe, supported and understood".

Libby - "I'm currently studying a Bachelor of Teaching (Primary) and hold a Certificate 3 in Eduction Support along with past experience in tutoring.
I enjoy supporting others to build confidence and learn in a way that feels relaxed and encouraging for them.
I love getting creative with crafts, baking & cooking, playing board games, thrifting for unique finds and spending time at the beach".

Zoe - "Relocated from England to Australia over a year ago. I’m a big fan of surfing (even if I do spend more time swimming than actually on the board! Haha) and love anything outdoors! I enjoy a happy mix of hobbies including adrenaline sports, arts and crafts, painting and staying active through walking and exercise.
You’ll usually find me soaking up the sunshine, spending time in nature, or by the ocean whenever I can. I’m also a big coffee lover and enjoy slowing down with a good cup and good company. I like to think of myself as a happy, easygoing all-rounder who’s up for anything. I value connection, kindness and love bringing a positive vibe to each day".

Support work allows me to walk alongside people at their own pace without the pressures of nursing performance indicators. In this role I am able to be client led and appreciate the small things that enhance mental health recovery".
