A Path To Follow

A Path To Follow A Path To Follow Inc. is a newly registered charity providing Living/ed Experience Mental Health Advocacy and Peer Support Services.

At A Path To Follow, we support the mental health of young people and families through a unique advocacy and peer support model, using lived experience and professional experiences to help navigate mental health and foster independence. With a team who hold a unique blend of qualifications and experiences as service users, carers and professionals in the sector, this service was founded to support

young people and families in a way the current system does not. We envisage a connected community where young people and families support each other in their mental health journeys. We hope to support families to achieve this by keeping young people connected to community via pairing them with workforce peers who have living/lived mental health experiences. We seek to support families with mental health advocacy and peer support to make their mental health journeys less isolating and ensure their voices are authentically heard in a service system that finds it hard to listen. The service is flexible and personalised according to a family’s needs, using an Intentional Peer Support framework to guide best engagement and support of peers. Young people, from approximately 11 years of age are connected to the community by pairing them with a living/lived experience Youth Peer Support Worker. We meet them where they are and walk beside them as they determine their own paths forward. Service navigation, advocacy, referral guidance, emotional and practical supports are provided to parents and families in their Family Peer Advocacy and Peer Support Program. Whole of family challenges are also supported with our Single Session Family Consultation Service, where practical plans are discussed, set and reviewed as families journey through complex life situations. This support can be ongoing or short term in helping families to navigate a complex service system.

📅 Weekly Presentation – 30 April

Join us at BNI First Class Moorabbin for our next member presentation.

Next week’s feature presentation will be delivered by Yolanda Alvares from Empowered Parents.

While Yolanda’s work is highly valued by parents, her insights go far beyond parenting. This presentation is recommended for anyone in a relationship with another human being — which, as it turns out, is most of us.

Yolanda invites us to look inward while trying to understand what blocks growth and communication with others. A firm believer in change from within, she brings a thoughtful and deeply observant perspective on the human psyche and how we relate to one another.

Expect a presentation that is highly interesting, reflective, and immensely valuable for anyone looking to improve communication and connection in their personal and professional lives.

Visitors are always welcome.

Sometimes parts of our brain have a different slant on reality.
How do you align the two?

I have always stored stress in my shoulders and neck.

Until I injured my back just prior to Xmas I haven't consciously thought too much about that since starting PT twice a week with .

The training I have been doing has helped my mental health in so many ways; with this physical stress release being just one of them.

I feel grateful that I am able to use movement to assist my wellbeing.
