━ ABOUT ANTHEA

Resilience, Wellbeing & the Psychology of Sustainable Performance.

Anthea is an HRDC Accredited Trainer, Registered & Licensed Counsellor, and educator with over 10 years of corporate experience across digital marketing and customer growth in fast-paced technology environments. She also brings experience in higher education, learning facilitation, and counselling practice. 

Her work sits at the intersection of psychology, workplace performance and wellbeing. Having worked in commercially driven, constantly evolving environments, Anthea understands the demands of navigating change, performance expectations and competing priorities. Her subsequent training and work in counselling deepened her understanding of how people respond to pressure and maintain wellbeing while meeting performance demands. 

"
Resilience is not simply about coping with more. It is about understanding what helps us function well, respond effectively to challenges, and work in ways that support both performance and wellbeing in the long term.”

Anthea specialises in resilience, burnout prevention, workplace wellbeing, sustainable performance and emotional intelligence. Her facilitation style is structured, experiential, and reflective, combining practical tools, discussion and real-world experience.

Rather than treating learning as a one-size-fits-all exercise, she creates learning experiences that allow participants to connect evidence-based psychological concepts with their own experiences and build their own personaliSed toolkit of practical strategies they can apply in their everyday work and lives. 

Areas of Focus
Resilience & Sustainable Performance Burnout Prevention Workplace Wellbeing Psychological Safety Emotional Intelligence Corporate Wellness Training

At the heart of her work is the belief that resilience is not simply about coping with more. It is about understanding what helps us function well, respond effectively to challenges, and work in ways that support both performance and wellbeing in the long term. 

Anthea's aim is to help individuals and teams build the awareness, resilience and agency to thrive through change, challenge and growth. 

"

I enjoyed the training program facilitated by Anthea. It was well-organized and engaging. The activities felt relevant as Anthea encouraged us to consider real-life examples of how we could apply what we learned. I left the session with practical skills that I can immediately apply in my personal and professional life.
