Rachael Gooch
rachael.gooch@ausomesupports.com.au
I am located in the Morning Peninsula region of Victoria. I work with participants along the East Coast of AU including regions such as Central QLD, Brisbane, Newcastle and Victoria. Being ND, I communicate with participants via their chosen mode, and believe strongly in actively listening to & empowering people.
My background experience is in family intervention services, foster care, residential support, disability, and support services. I have worked side by side with mainstream services such as Dept of housing and accommodation services, Child protection, Justice Departments, Medical teams, Public/State trustee’s office and OPG (office of the Public Guardian). My area of strength is within the psycho-social space. I hold a qualification in Community Services and lived experience within the psycho-social space. Mental Health is my passion. I have been in the Support Coordination role for 2 years.
In my down time I like to spend time with family or head out bush and visit friends in the rural regions of Victoria. I enjoy hiking, camping, 4WDriving and riding my horses, often with my trusted companion (my dog Vienna) by my side.
