Pieta has seven years of experience working in behaviour support spaces, alongside running her own business. She brings over a decade of diverse experience to the disability sector, moving between frontline teaching, clinical practice, and executive leadership. Her approach is defined by a belief that everyone has a right to be heard and that true support starts with meeting people exactly where they are, without judgement.

Her journey into the sector was deeply personal, sparked by advocating for her daughter’s education. This led Pieta to become an Associate Member of the Australian Dyslexic Association and a Multisensory Structured Language (MSL) specialist. Through her own practice specialising in literacy and communication, she has spent the past nine years helping individuals unlock the tools they need to navigate the world.

Pieta’s practice is uniquely informed by her own lived experience; she received an adult diagnosis of Autism in 2021. This perspective allows her to bridge the gap between clinical theory and daily reality, particularly when helping neurodiverse children and adults foster self-awareness and acceptance. She is passionate about using technology—from immersive readers to assistive digital tools—to create practical shortcuts that reduce anxiety and improve independence.

Based in Batemans Bay, Pieta works across the lifespan with a particular focus on Autism, ADHD, and complex learning disabilities. Whether she is applying her background in executive management to navigate the NDIS or using her counselling training to provide trauma-informed care, her goal remains the same: empowering people to understand their own strengths.

Pieta holds a Graduate degree in Special Education, a Graduate Diploma in Counselling, and is currently completing a Master of Counselling. She also holds Diplomas in Business and Management.
