I pay my respects to the traditional custodians of the Burramattagal peoples on the land in which I work.
Senior Support Coordinator / Psychosocial Recovery Coach
From a young age, I have always been driven by a deep desire to help and understand others—a value instilled in me by my family and culture. This passion for giving back to the community has guided my journey, particularly in supporting individuals with mental health challenges. Growing up, I witnessed the stigma surrounding mental health, which only strengthened my commitment to raising awareness and advocating for accessible support.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Health Sciences with a major in Psychology and am currently completing my Graduate Diploma of Psychology (Advanced).
Tennille Martin
I pay my respects to the traditional custodians of the peoples on the land in which I work.
Team Leader / Support Coordinator
Through my work as a disability support worker, I’ve witnessed firsthand the powerful and lasting impact that compassionate, person-centred support can have on someone’s life. Each experience has reinforced my belief in the value of genuine connection, consistency, and advocacy in this space. I’ve seen how the right support can empower individuals to overcome challenges, build confidence, and take meaningful steps toward their goals.
On a personal level, having a brother-in-law with a disability has given me an intimate understanding of the everyday realities faced by individuals and their families. It’s shown me how vital a strong, reliable support network is—not just for achieving goals, but for creating a sense of stability and belonging. This combination of professional experience and personal insight fuels my passion for helping others build and strengthen their own networks, so they feel empowered to take control of their journey and shape the future they envision.
Bella Clarke
I pay my respects to the traditional custodians of the Gadigal and Bidjigal peoples on the land in which I work.
Support Coordinator
Bella brings a strong foundation in both disability support and allied health, shaped by three years of experience as a support worker and her ongoing studies in Occupational Therapy. Having worked directly with participants for several years, she knows how overwhelming the NDIS can feel, and how important it is to have a Support Coordinator who listens, communicates clearly, and takes the time to understand each person’s unique situation.
Throughout her work, Bella has supported individuals with a range of needs, including psychosocial disability, developmental conditions, deaf and hard of hearing, complex behavioural presentations, and those requiring higher levels of day-to-day assistance. She is proudly LGBTQIA+ positive and holds deep respect for people of all cultural backgrounds, faiths, and identities. Her hands-on experience has given her practical insight into what truly helps people feel safe, empowered, and understood in both community and home environments.
Bella is passionate about helping participants build capacity, develop independence, and improve overall wellbeing. She values collaborative relationships with families, providers, and multidisciplinary teams, and is focused on connecting participants with the supports that best suit their goals.
Bella is always happy to connect if you’d like to see whether she might be the right fit for you or your loved one.

Chris Collett
I pay my respects to the traditional custodians of the Dharawal peoples on the land in which I work.
Support Coordinator / Psychosocial Recovery Coach
I previously worked as a support worker, assisting individuals with complex behaviours to achieve their personal goals and live more independently. I’m deeply passionate about supporting people with complex needs, bringing both professional experience and personal insight to my work.
Having grown up in a family with a history of mental health challenges, I have a genuine empathy for those navigating similar experiences.
Outside of work, I love spending time with my children and watching them grow into their own unique personalities. I'm also a proud, self-proclaimed nerd—and wouldn’t have it any other way!
Constanza Ortiz
I pay my respects to the traditional custodians of the Bidjigal peoples on the land in which I work.
Support Coordinator / Psychosocial Recovery Coach
I’m passionate about supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds and learning about their lives, cultures, and personal goals. When I first arrived in Australia, I experienced both the excitement of new opportunities and the challenges of culture shock. While adjusting to life in a new country, I also began to confront my own mental health struggles. At the time, I didn’t understand terms like “disability” or know about the NDIS—but I did understand the value of reaching out for help. That experience inspired me to become the kind of support I once needed in my younger years.
I began studying a Diploma of Mental Health and started working as a support worker, gaining hands-on experience with individuals living with intellectual disabilities, ADHD, schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder, and autism (levels 2–3), among others. To continue developing my knowledge and skills, I am now pursuing a Bachelor of Psychology at Macquarie University. My goal is to provide even more effective, person-centred support that empowers those I work with.
