About Me
Isabella holds a Bachelor of Social Science (Sociology) and a Master of Social Work from the University of Wollongong. With over four years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults with disabilities and mental health conditions, as well as in Child Protection, she has engaged with a diverse range of individuals. Drawing on her solid foundation in social science and her formal qualifications in social work, Isabella has dedicated a significant portion of her professional career to supporting individuals experiencing complex behaviours. Her commitment to positive behaviour support is deeply rooted in a genuine passion for empowering young people and their families by fostering environments where they can thrive both emotionally and socially. Utilising her academic insights and practical experience, Isabella adopts a holistic, person-centred, and trauma-informed approach, recognising the unique contexts, strengths, and challenges of each individual. Her training in social work has been instrumental in shaping her understanding of the various factors influencing behaviour, including family dynamics, social determinants, and mental health considerations. This comprehensive perspective enables her to collaborate effectively with families, educators, and multidisciplinary teams to develop and implement tailored strategies that encourage positive behavioural change. Working with children and adolescents is particularly rewarding for Isabella, as it allows her to make meaningful, lasting impacts during these critical developmental stages. She is committed to continuous professional development and evidence-based practice to ensure the highest-quality support, fostering resilience and enhancing the quality of life for those she assists.
