WELCOME

Grow & Flourish provides services to people with a disability to support goal driven success.

Hi THERE, I’M MEAGAN

I’m Meagan Southam and I founded Grow & Flourish. I have 20 years experience as a Developmental Educator and Rehabilitation Counsellor.

I am a passionate Developmental Educator ready to work alongside people with a disability to achieve their goals. I can help you with a variety of things including development of functional living skills, support with life transitions (such as skills for moving out of home, or from school to work), increasing independence skills (such as transport training), support with behaviour concerns and can also complete Functional Capacity Assessments using various standardised assessment tools.

I am a full member of the Developmental Educators Australia Inc.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.
