10 years in the social service sector

Hey everyone, Gavin here!

I’m a father of 1 , love to binge watch anime at times , enjoy performing magic as well as supporting people.

After a decade in social services, I made a leap of faith and opened my own counselling practice focused on empowering children and teenagers. It wasn't easy, especially with a young one at home. But after careful consideration, I knew it was the right path for me.

Why did I make the change?

⭐️ Seizing the moment: I didn't want to miss out on my dream of helping young people reach their full potential.

⭐️Family focus: More control over my schedule means more quality time with my child.

⭐️Passion & Growth: I wanted to fully utilize and grow my skillset by pursuing my passion for counselling.

The past 6 months haven't been sunshine and rainbows:

❌Starting a business is tough! There were challenges, moments of doubt, and even some rejections.

But the rewards are amazing:

❤️Strong support: My faith and my amazing wife have been my rock.

❤️ New connections: I've met incredible people along the way.

Thinking about a career change? Let's connect! I'd love to share my experience and maybe even offer some guidance.
