Our Story
Hi there, my name is Carol and I am thrilled that you have landed on my page!
As a seasoned, Neurodivergent Play Therapist, Positive Behaviour Support Practitioner, and Functional Movement Trainer, I have dedicated my career to creating a positive impact in the lives of individuals and families.

Through the establishment of Grow Therapy Services and The Inclusive Movement, I have made it my mission to provide safe and neuro-affirming support services and developmental guidance for individuals and families.
My services are designed to encourage individuals to embrace their individuality while emphasising the importance of learning through activities that bring them joy!
Education-wise, I hold a degree in Disability and Developmental Education, Counselling and Personal Training, along with extensive theoretical and practical professional development, making me well-equipped to offer high-quality support across a range of areas.

OUR APPROACH
Move, Play, Connect
At Grow Therapy Services, we embrace our cultural heritage and the Māori word for Autism—Takiwatanga, meaning “in their own time and space”.
This philosophy is at the heart of everything we do. We recognise that every neurodivergent person moves through life at their own rhythm, with their own strengths, interests, and ways of learning.
Our Move, Play, Connect! approach is built on the understanding that meaningful growth happens through movement, joyful exploration, and relationships built on trust. Instead of rigid programs, we create individualised, interest-led experiences where learning feels natural and engaging. Whether it’s using a favorite game, a deep passion for animals, or a love of music, we harness special interests as a powerful tool for connection, communication, and skill-building.
As a neurodivergent-led service, we get it. We know that traditional therapy models don’t always fit, and we take pride in creating flexible, affirming, and non-judgmental spaces where individuals and families feel truly seen and supported.
Every person we work with is met with empathy, respect, and a commitment to honouring their unique way of being in the world. Here, progress isn’t measured by ticking boxes—it’s about empowerment, autonomy, and growing into the best version of you, in your own time and space. 💚
Meet the Team
We’re a small passionate, neurodivergent-affirming team dedicated to providing flexible, strengths-based support. Every member of our team brings their own lived experience, special interests, and unique approach to therapy—so we'll always do our best to match you with someone who gets you!
Whether you thrive in structured environments, love to learn through play, or need a space where you can be your authentic self, we’re here to support you in your own time and space. 💚

Join the GROW Movement — Redefining Therapy, Remotely
We're Looking for Neuroaffirming Clinicians!
We’re small — by design — because we’re building something big.
Grow Therapy Services is entering a new chapter — and we’re inviting values-aligned clinicians to help us shape the future of neuroaffirming practice across Australia.
We believe therapy should feel human. Real. Flexible. Inclusive.
It should honour identity, embrace difference, and empower both practitioners and participants to show up as their authentic selves.
If you’ve ever felt like you don’t fit within the traditional allied health system — maybe it’s because you were meant to help build a new one.

We’re not just hiring — we’re reimagining what therapy can be.
