Katherine graduated from Griffith University with a Bachelor of Social Work in 2009. Since then, Katherine has worked within many settings, sectors and frameworks. Her background in the disability, community development and employment sectors specifically has enabled her to work with a wide range of people, supporting them to build lives full of meaning, creativity and connection.
Katherine specialises in behaviour support, counselling and working with families to build safety, connection and opportunities for growth for children, young people and adults. Katherine enjoys supporting individuals and families to grow in their wellbeing and their connection to themselves, loved ones and their community.
When she isn’t at work, she improves on her video game skills, bakes scones and drinks coffee with her family.
