The practice

Walking alongside people until real, lasting change is possible.

Deep care for others, genuine joy in co-labouring alongside people, and the belief that with patience, time and trust, real and transformative change is possible.

Cultural understanding is not an optional extra. It is foundational.

Patient and persistent

Years of working with high-risk and difficult situations have taught me to be patient and persistent. I don’t give up easily, I keep instilling hope, and I hold people accountable to their goals.

2–4

Weeks from initial contact to a written report, and it can be prioritised for urgent plan reviews or access deadlines.

10+

The ages supported, across in-person visits, home visits and telehealth.

Built on equity and trust

As a child of the diaspora, I build equity and trust with participants, families and organisations from all backgrounds.

For support coordinators and providers

Why refer here.

Culturally safe, for everyone

Samoan heritage and lived experience of navigating life between cultures, applied in practice with participants from all backgrounds. Open to any Pacific community and all diverse backgrounds.

Holistic, and then persistent

Understanding the person’s journey, triggers, family relationships, pro-social factors and support systems, then continually assessing and reassessing while walking alongside them.

Assessment and the work after it

Assessment and recovery coaching under one practice, so the person who writes the report can also be the one who helps put it into action.

I want people to feel the deep care I have for others, and the genuine joy I find in co-labouring alongside them.
