Nicole joins FABIC as a Behaviour Support Practitioner with experience supporting young people and families facing significant health and life challenges. Beginning her career supporting youth at risk and later coordinating state-wide programs for teenagers with cancer and cystic fibrosis, Nicole understands the complex needs of individuals and families navigating disability, illness, and behavioural challenges. She is passionate about creating meaningful change and providing holistic, compassionate support that addresses the whole person.

With formal qualifications in counselling and family therapy, Nicole brings a person-centred, strengths-based approach to behaviour support. Her therapeutic background in Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) enables her to work deeply with participants to understand the emotional drivers behind behaviour, process trauma, and build self-awareness. Nicole’s extensive experience coordinating support programs, working within multidisciplinary teams, and developing tailored interventions means she understands how to create practical, achievable strategies that support lasting behaviour change. She values the importance of family systems and relationships in supporting participants to reach their full potential and live fulfilling lives.
