Achievements & Success Stories:
Success Story:
I supported a client who experienced panic attacks every time she got into a vehicle, to find a suitable driving instructor that was trauma-informed. Her MH OT worked with us to get driving lessons included in her plan, and she was eventually able to get her licence and buy a car. Later that year, she drove 4h to rural Vic to take her kids camping

Let’s break down those barriers and see you succeed
