I started somaterra because I wanted to provide services the way I believe they should be provided — flexible and personalised.

My path here wasn't a straight line. I’ve worked, studied, volunteered, and cared for a family, often all at once. That's taught me that flexibility isn't a nice-to-have, it's essential. I've seen first-hand how much of a difference it makes in genuinely enabling access to services and life.‍ ‍

Life and professional experience have taught me the importance of meeting people where they are, and recognising that everyone deserves access to high‑quality support, no matter their circumstances or postcode.

My training and qualifications have shaped my approach across every service I offer, giving me a deep understanding of people, behaviour, and the strategies that genuinely improve quality of life.

Having worked across the community, within the disability sector, and the field of criminal justice, particularly in regional areas, I have learnt how individual and unique each person is, and the value of personalised support.

These are what drove me to start somaterra. My approach is simple: quality support designed to meet you where you are.
