Hello,
I’m Noémie (pronounced ‘No-eh-me’), a Mental Health social worker and supervisor working on Turrbal and Yagerra lands, in Brisbane, Queensland. I have been working alongside people since 2005 to improve access to justice, dignity and meaningful life experiences.
I am a warm and compassionate person, who strongly believes in each person’s innate ability to heal themselves through the power of connection.
I work with children, young people, adults and families and provide animal assisted therapy with my playful and loving dog Tango (certified therapy dog, Therapy Dog Australia).

Professional Clinical Supervision
My vision for professional supervision is to provide a space supporting the growth and sustainability of practitioners and the continuous development of best practice through ongoing critical reflection, dialogue and mutual learning.
My framework to practice is informed by the wisdom of those who have walked alongside me, by the exploration of the impacts of power and privileges, and by critical and intersectional feminist frameworks.
It takes a lot of courage to engage in therapy. My practice focuses on providing a safe space where each person is seen and heard for whom they are rather than being seen through the lenses of the issues they face or society’s expectations or assumptions.
