NDIS Youth Mentor For Boys
(10-18 years old)
The truth is, most boys don’t want to sit in a room and talk to a stranger.
Honestly, I get it.
Growing up, that didn’t work for me either.
For the past 3.5 years, I’ve worked closely with boys aged roughly 10–18, many of them:
• Struggle with traditional talk-based therapy
• Shut down in formal or clinical settings
• Find it hard to trust adults (especially male)
• Need time, consistency, and rapport before they open up
What they often need first isn’t another appointment.
They need a safe & grounded male relationship with someone who meets them where they’re at.
That’s where I come in.
Part of why I do this work is lived experience.
As a young person, I struggled with anxiety and mental health myself, and I know how difficult it can be to open up, especially in clinical settings.
That experience has strongly shaped how I work with young people today.
My background also includes:
• 7 years in the healing and personal development space
• 6 years owning and running a gym as a personal trainer
Because of this, my approach blends movement, connection, and real world guidance.
Not just “having fun”, and not just “therapy style” sessions, it’s more in the middle.
What sessions actually look like:
• Walking, gym, basketball, outdoor activity
• Mentoring through movement.
• Building trust over time without forcing conversations
• Supporting emotional regulation in real life situations
• Teaching practical tools they can use day to day
• Building confidence, self worth & routine.
Once trust is built, the conversations typically come naturally.
I work well with:
✔️ Boys and young men (typically 10-18 years old)
✔️ Participants who resist or struggle with therapy
✔️ Young people needing confidence, regulation, and direction
✔️ Families wanting a mentor, not just a worker
✔️ Capacity building and community participation goals
Please note*
I’m not a therapist and I don’t replace therapy.
But for many, this can be the bridge that makes growth possible.
I’m only taking on 3 more clients at this moment.
