I have extensive experience providing counselling within correctional settings, working therapeutically with both adults and youth people. I am passionate about walking alongside individuals as they navigate life’s challenges. My approach is grounded in holistic, person-centred care that values both structure and transformation. As a veteran, I bring an understanding of resilience and the power of disciplined environments in fostering personal growth.

Currently working within the corrections system, I support both adults and young people, focusing on rehabilitation, reintegration, and breaking cycles of adversity. As a proud Samoan father, I draw on cultural wisdom, spiritual grounding, and trauma-informed practice to guide my work.

My lived experience growing up in social housing offers deep insight into the realities of systemic disadvantage. This perspective enables me to provide authentic, solution-focused support that is both practical and empowering.

I am deeply committed to healing beyond traditional clinical frameworks—integrating spiritual and holistic elements with evidence-based counselling techniques. This blended approach supports self-awareness, emotional balance, and sustainable personal development.
