Evidence-Based Workplace Psychology

Build mentally healthy, high-performing workplaces

We help organisations improve performance, reduce psychosocial risk, and strengthen leadership through evidence-based workplace mental health programs, executive coaching, and employee support services.

Why This Matters

Workplace mental health
is now a business,
leadership, and legal priority

Stress, burnout, and psychosocial hazards are no longer isolated issues, they directly impact performance, culture, and organisational risk. Across Australia, businesses are facing rising expectations to create psychologically safe workplaces while maintaining productivity, engagement, and compliance with workplace health and safety obligations.

Without the right awareness, leadership capability, and systems in place, these challenges can lead to disengaged teams, increased absenteeism, and costly workplace incidents.

  • Increased stress, burnout, and employee disengagement
  • Reduced productivity and team performance
  • Higher absenteeism and turnover
  • Psychosocial risks impacting workplace safety
  • Growing legal and WHS compliance requirements
  • Lack of confidence in handling mental health conversations

About Us

In the ever-evolving landscape of workplace wellness and leadership development, two dynamic professionals have come together to redefine the standards of transformative workplace programs. Meet Simone and Miriam, the driving force behind our innovative initiatives.

Meet Simone and Miriam

Simone (right), with 15 years of dedicated service as a Clinical Psychologist and Clinical Neuropsychologist, has traversed both government and private sectors. Her expertise extends to assessing, diagnosing, and treating clients with various psychological and neurological conditions, specialising in independent medico-legal assessments. Simone’s exceptional organisational, communication, and interpersonal skills, coupled with her easy-going and approachable demeanour, allow her to build quick and effective rapport with clients ranging from team members to CEOs.

Complementing Simone’s wealth of experience is Miriam (below, left), a trailblazing Health Psychologist, and the driving force behind transformative change in the fields of psychology, holistic wellness, photobiobmodulation, and mind-body medicine. With over 15 years of impactful contributions, Miriam has collaborated with individuals, teams, and organisations, guiding them towards positive and desired outcomes. She is a catalyst for meaningful change, a pioneer in mind-body medicine, and a dedicated advocate for choice and diversity in healthcare. With a passion for transformative change and a commitment to excellence, Miriam continues to inspire and lead on the journey toward personal leadership, optimal health, and meaningful growth.

After decades in the industry, Simone and Miriam identified a gap in the market — a need for authentic, high-quality, evidence-based training for individuals and workplaces. Their passion for driving long-term, sustainable change in both individuals and teams is the driving force behind their mission to foster “mental wealth”. With a commitment to embodying supportive and strategic leadership in their own lives and practices, they are excited to partner with others to actualise transformational change and accelerate the growth and development of individuals and organisations.

Loved by Our Clients

Trusted by organisations
committed to healthier workplaces

We partner with organisations across industries to deliver meaningful, practical workplace wellbeing and leadership programs, with results our clients value and trust.

Engaging & Practical

“I found the workshop really useful, it presented it in a way that was very engaging and meaningful. Miriam did an awesome job of keeping us all involved and learning, adapting the program to suit us - I really appreciate it! I am looking forward to going back through the Action Plan (such a good round up of the session!) and actually feel excited about putting it into action. Miriam has given me some great tools and ideas to really make valuable self-improvements, which is refreshing as the older I become, the more I realise self-improvement is forever!”

Liz Bailey
Team Leader Environmental Planning, Environment, Heritage and Resilience, City of Gold Coast

Strategic & Impactful

“It took me a while to find a suitable local Sunshine Coast psychologist to find a like minded person like Simone that understood what I was trying to achieve with my business, but also had the skills and capability to deliver the message we wanted to share with our team. This is a very niche market and it is extremely important for businesses to optimise their teams' mental health and wellbeing. Any employee in any industry would benefit from the calibre of support that Simone can offer to their employers to assist them with their daily work/life balance. Simone tailored workshops to meet the needs of our team to deliver our wellbeing strategy over an 18 month period. She is an engaging and dynamic facilitator that brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table. I would highly recommend Simone to anyone who is passionate about improving the mental health and wellbeing of their employees.”

Rod Pertot
Owner Manager, BOQ Noosa

Clear & Actionable

“My role is to support our entire workforce and I can highly recommend the facilitators of todays webinar, "Building a Supportive Work Culture". Miriam and Simone were highly skilled but broke the session down to ensure implementation is easily followed and the goals are achievable. I look forward to the next webinar in the series and will share with those busy business owners who need to make the time to be informed. Your workplace will be better for it.”

Julie Irwin
Team Assistant, ShedEx Fleurieu

Insightful & Valuable

“I came late to the series on Mentally Healthy Workplaces and will review the previous sessions, such was the calibre of today's session it brought a new perspective and phenomenal insight into improving workplaces. I strongly recommend connecting with this series. Thank you Simone and Miriam, you guys are awesome!!”
