virtual support work

Our virtual support work service is run by a neurodivergent support worker and designed around neurodivergent ways of thinking, learning and communicating.

 

This service offers flexible, collaborative support that honours your strengths, preferences, communication style and capacity.

 

Together, we'll explore what feels helpful, meaningful and sustainable for you, whether that's navigating everyday tasks, building support networks, strengthening self-advocacy or creating systems that work with your brain rather than against it.

Diverse and Thriving acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work, the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation. We recognise their continuing connection to the land and waters and the continuation of cultural, spiritual, and educational practices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples. We thank them for protecting this beautiful land and its ecosystems since time immemorial. We acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded. We pay our respects to Elders past and present and extend that respect to all First Nations Peoples across Australia.
