About Resilient Minds Therapy
Teela is an entry-level Behaviour Support Practitioner with a strong background in community services and over eight years of leadership experience across the disability, aged care, and Aboriginal medical services sectors.
She holds an Advanced Diploma of Community Sector Management and brings extensive experience working within the NDIS and complex case management. Throughout her career, Teela has supported participants with diverse and high-level needs, including those engaged with forensic mental health services, child safety, and the justice system.
Her practice is grounded in person-centred, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive approaches. Teela is passionate about working with people from all backgrounds and lived experiences, providing support that is respectful, inclusive, and tailored to each individual. As a First Nations woman, she brings a deep understanding of the importance of culture, community, and connection to wellbeing, and is committed to delivering culturally safe support.
Her approach focuses on understanding the "why" behind behaviours — empowering individuals and creating environments where people feel heard, valued, and supported to achieve their goals. Teela works collaboratively with participants, families, and multidisciplinary teams to implement practical, evidence-based strategies that enhance quality of life and reduce restrictive practices.
Teela is committed to delivering high-quality, ethical behaviour support that empowers individuals, strengthens support networks, and creates meaningful, sustainable outcomes.
