What Darcy loves about working in mental health

“I love getting to know people, hearing their stories and building a genuine relationship with them. I enjoy helping people work through the barriers and challenges they face, while building the skills and confidence to better understand and work with their mind. Most importantly, I want people to feel understood, supported and empowered throughout life’s journey.”
