My name is Julie Kirkman, and I am an independent support worker with a deep passion for enriching the lives of others. I’m 49 years old, a mother of two grown children, and soon to become a grandparent.
I bring 10 years of experience as a primary school teacher, having worked in various locations across NSW, QLD, and the Torres Strait. This diverse background has helped me build a rich understanding of the varied needs of individuals, allowing me to connect with clients from all walks of life. I live an active, outdoor-oriented lifestyle, enjoying fishing, camping, diving, cooking, and art, and I believe that the energy and joy I find in these activities can help enhance the well-being of others.
As a support worker, I am outgoing, personable, and deeply committed to helping my clients discover joy in everyday life. I strive to foster personal growth, well-being, and social development by tailoring each session to the unique needs of the individual.
I believe that a strong connection with nature and the local environment plays a vital role in personal growth, which is why I design each session to cater to the unique needs of the individual. Activities can be tailored to suit physical, emotional, and mental well-being, such as:
Creative activities for mental health and well-being, including painting, rock painting, drawing, beading, and photography.
Practices for a healthy body and mind, like yoga, meditation, breathing exercises, hiking, river swims, waterfall walks, and fishing.
Activities for building self-esteem, confidence, and independence, such as swimming, gym exercises, cooking healthy meals, and budgeting skills.
Fostering resilience, gratitude, and mindfulness through social emotional learning.
Whether it’s a session focused on personal growth, developing new skills, or simply connecting with the natural world. I am committed to creating a space where my clients can find joy, foster creativity and motivation and grow to be all they dream of.
I would love the opportunity to discuss how I can support your clients' needs and develop a personalised plan that helps achieve a balanced, fulfilling life.
Please feel free to reach out at 0431318683 or julieEmpoweringconnectionsfnq@gmail.com to arrange a time to discuss sessions with me further.
