Freja Heather

Freja brings over 10 years of experience supporting children, young people and families through complex life circumstances. With a Bachelor of Behavioural Science and postgraduate training in counselling, she has worked extensively in support and leadership roles, and therapeutic practice across Tasmania. 

Freja understands firsthand what barriers young parents face and is passionate about walking alongside young parents as they build confidence, identify their goals and create positive futures for themselves and their children. Freja takes a strengths-based approach, believing that every young person deserves to feel heard, respected and supported to shape their own future.  

She has a particular interest in play-based therapy and child development, with a strong appreciation for the role that secure attachment and safe, supportive relationships play in helping children and families thrive.  

Freja is also a gardening enthusiast, who enjoys spending as much time outdoors with her family as possible.
