Hi, I’m James.

I provide innovative, personalised NDIS services to people with psychosocial and neurodifferent needs from all walks of life.

I believe that mental difference is not mental illness. The challenges many of us face are not because we’re different, it’s because it takes a lot of work to thrive in a system set up for "an ordinary life". A healthy system is a complex ecosystem, where insights  and contributions of unique perspectives strengthen the greater organism. I want to live in world where our diversity can thrive.

I’m an independent worker, the only agenda I work with is yours. My approach puts you in charge, and I’ll support you to do the things that give your life meaning, purpose and joy. You know yourself better than anyone else and you’ve made it this far - and maybe you can use me to help you get to the next bit.

I’ve been working in the NDIS since it started in Melbourne in 2018. I completed the Cert IV in Mental Health in 2020 and tried but didn't complete the Diploma in Community Services and the Diploma in Counselling. As of 2026, I'm now halfway through the Bachelor of Counselling. 

My best training has come from experiences and relationships with people who use the NDIS, from lifelong reading of books and articles and listening when people and professionals talk. I also bring lived/living experience of mental difference and the empathy, adapatability and resources grown through the lifestyle impacts that come with that. 

My service style is informed by years working with people in all sorts of roles - hospitality, vocational training, education support and more. I take pride in delivering a very high level of service to my clients.

I’m not a psychologist or a counsellor (yet!) or a regular support worker, I’m a person with some skills and knowledge and ways of communicating that come in handy when navigating mental health the NDIS - and life…
