Having support is often crucial to overcoming life challenges and personal growth. It's not necessary to remain stuck or the struggle alone.

(operated independently by Catherine Pourreau) was born out of a strong desire to support and advocate for people with disability, to become recognized as invaluable participating members of the work-force and of their community. The aim is to help individuals express more fully their talents, their positive spirit and their creativity. Non-for-profit organisations that service or employ people with disability (and/or mental health issues) often run on a limited capital and rely heavily on carers, volunteers and government support to operate. As a practicing counseling psychotherapist, an art therapist and a somatic practitioner, Catherine has worked with individuals with different types of disabilities and levels of impairment, in private practice and in non-for-profit organisations that offer day programs and employment (Australian Disability Employment Organisations - ADEs). It is clear that a collective unmet need for specialized counseling/coaching support is significantly limiting the potential of these organisations. My role is therefore to provide counseling and mentoring support to individuals who want to create a richer, more independent life for themselves, but need extra support with: strengths-building, identifying their purpose and direction, increasing their motivation, participation and/or productivity. Catherine's skills lies in inspiring and motivating people, and helping them to orient their efforts towards reaching desired future goals. P.E.A.S.
