BENDIGO

Hi, I’m Lauren! I hold a Bachelor of Psychological Science and am a Registered NDIS Behaviour Support Practitioner. I grew up in Echuca and love camping on the Murray river, spending time with my 14yo dog Marley, music (especially Fleetwood Mac), travelling and spending time with my family and friends.

I have worked in the mental health, youth and addiction sector for the past 14 years, bringing a trauma-informed, person-centred approach to my practice. I love empowering others to live life their way and ensuring their voice is heard. I focus on building trusting relationships, creating safety, and helping people find practical ways to reduce risk.

I believe that working collaboratively with the individual and their supports is crucial to ensuring a consistent approach to behaviour. I am excited to start working with Behaviour Support Services and look forward to working with you.
