​Managing a young person, understanding their history, trauma responses, risk profile, and the weight of everyone’s expectations is what we do. When a young person requires supervised family time, transport, mentoring, coaching, daytime support (8–12 hours), overnight respite (24–48 hours), or emergency care, I provide that support. I am also available as an emergency fill-in when a youth worker feels unsafe or requires replacement. I specialise in working with young people who consistently test limits and push boundaries, managing complex behaviours with expertise. I can serve as the anchor point balancing structure with adaptability to ensure young people feel both safe and supported.

 

​

The Gaps We Fill

We can also support you when:

• Behaviour escalates in sporting environments

• Young people breach curfews, disappear, or emotionally shut down

• Clubs report "attitude," "inconsistency," or "non-compliance"

• You’re stuck between court orders and game schedules

• Carers are burnt out from emotional load

• Staff or carers don’t know how to talk to coaches or vice versa

 

Sport can only serve as a protective factor when the system itself doesn’t replicate the trauma.

​

What We Provide In Sporting Situations

1. Trauma-Informed Supervision

Fortnightly or monthly 1:1 and small-group supervision sessions for your staff, focused on live case dynamics. Sessions include co-regulation support, language reframing, athlete mental skills, and nervous system resets for your team.

​

2. Emergency Care

We can provide short-term care for a young person where there has been a home or placement breakdown. Read more

 

3.  Athlete Regulation Plans (Sport + Care Combined)

Structured resources including integrated routines, escalation maps, language cues, and stabilisation scripts. These tools are developed for carers, the young person’s coaches, and key workers to apply consistently, ensuring a coordinated approach to support and behaviour management.

 

4. Therapeutic Care Through Sport Consultation

We audit the training and living environment through a trauma + performance lens.
We advise on sleep routines, food regulation, triggers, pressure windows, and safety anchors.

 

5. Sports Conditioning and 1:1 Training

Sports Conditioning and 1:1 Training tailored to athletes with both performance goals and complex behavioural needs. Programs integrate physical conditioning with trauma-informed strategies to build strength, resilience, and stability in high-pressure environments.

 

6. Athlete Behaviour Response Plans

 

We provide tailored regulation scripts, trauma-informed routines, and escalation flowcharts—custom-built for sporting environments. Designed to equip clubs with practical, real-time tools to support behavioural stability, protect performance, and prevent crisis.

 

7. Club Collaboration Liaison

We bridge DCJ professionals with clubs, ensuring the athlete’s plan and the program’s culture align. Less conflict. More trust. Better athlete outcomes.

 

8. Transition Support (Crisis or Opportunity)

Moving homes, reuniting with family, entering elite boarding, or navigating new carers? We provide wrap-around planning so athletes don’t unravel mid-transition.

 

9. Culture Design. From Rules to Regulate

 

We audit your training environment through a trauma-informed lens—reviewing routines, tone, triggers, power dynamics, recovery windows, and social safety protocols for carers.

​

10. DCJ & High-Risk Athlete Integration Support

We consult on club onboarding, carer alignment, and athlete supervision strategy when working with youth in care or under legal orders.

​

What Makes This Different

Most trauma-informed training is designed for crisis management or school settings.

 

You need something that understands:

• How pressure works in elite sport

• How the nervous system collapses mid-game

• How to stabilise youth who can’t name their emotions

• How to work with clubs, not against them

• How to advocate for athletes without losing court compliance

 

We deliver precision tools, not just theory.

Everything we teach is usable on the sidelines, in the car, or during a shutdown.

​

Results That Speak

• Multiple DCJ athletes moved from “high-risk” to “stable” during elite sport transitions

• 100% of carers report improved routines, communication, and emotional load support

• Caseworkers report fewer breach events and improved relationships with the young persons support networks

• Young people report higher self-regulation and predictable safety in routines

• Improvement in school attendance and grades

• A better understanding of the child and their needs.

• Independent living skills check list completed.

Our Core Belief

“When care and performance are aligned, behaviour becomes manageable and potential becomes visible.”

 

You don’t have to hold this alone.

 

We specialise in systems that support the supporters.​
