Miss Mariana Weaver
I am a 4th year psycholgy student (Honours) with a passion for suicide prevention, child protection and advocating for the equitable treatment of all.

I have experience working as a psycho-social recovery coach, mental health support worker and currently, as a team leader facilitating social groups for neuro-divergent children. It is my dream to continue studying and become qualified as a clinical psychologist.

Between work and studying, I also have experience volunteering as a child mentor for Connect Kids, Crisis Support Caller for Lifeline and doing wellness checks on older adults through the Comlink Australia Tele-friend program.

My friends and family would describe me as friendly, positive and hard working.

It is my hope that by joining the APS Sunshine Coast Branch, I can act as a voice for the students and connect with other like-minded individuals.

I am always looking for new opportunities and connections so please feel free to reach out.

Best,

Mariana :)
