After nearly 20 as a change management consultant Frances retrained as a therapist six years ago. With a specialist interest in the mental health of wildlife carers and others that work with animals she works with grief, loss and trauma recovery. This interest came out of working with animals as a volunteer carer for domestic and wildlife rescue and forming close friend and working relationships with vets across the East Coast. Frances has spoken at the 2018 Australian Wildlife Rehabilitation Conference and teaches self-care and mental health awareness training in Sydney, Canberra, Hobart and Launceston.
