My name is Neil.

I’m a dad, a husband and a committed family man. I understand mental health issues in both a personal capacity and through self-taught education. I have experienced my own path of working out my mental health, and have had past issues with depression, anxiety, stress and addiction. I have supported people close to me with mental health issues throughout my adult life.

Recovery has given me opportunities to develop new skills and think differently and has made me a wiser and more empathetic person. I want to give something back to my community, and I’m hoping to enrol in professional courses involving psychology or counselling. I aim to become a mental health support worker for Isorropia to help empower as many people as possible to achieve a future with better wellbeing.
