Lachlan’s dream of helping others is driven by his own personal experience suffering from mental health issues throughout his teenage years. During his years at school Lachlan suffered with weight issues, acne and low self-esteem. After his acne cleared up and he dropped the weight Lachlan discovered a new sense of self which came with it’s own challenges. In his late teenage years Lachlan was admitted to Fiona Stanley’s mental ward where he got to see first hand how broken the mental health system was. 

After leaving Fiona Stanley, Lachlan made it his mission to not only inspire and heal himself but also to find answers for other’s to do so as well. Lachlan took up Muay Thai which is a form of martial arts alongside getting his certificate III and IV in fitness from the Australian Health and Fitness Federation. Muay Thai is still a prominent part of Lachlan’s life, so far he’s had three fight’s for two wins and one loss, with aspirations to further continue his career and go pro.  

Lachlan’s pursuit of knowledge lead him to university where he studied psychology. Currently undergoing his final year of study Lachlan is now well equipped and skilled in understanding a range of mental health issues. During his time at Curtin University, Lachlan believed it was important to align his studies with real world experience in the field. Lachlan started working as a Youth Worker where he has gained valuable experience working with clients suffering a range of different mental health issues. Lachlan also works alongside Lightbulb skills who are a prominent business within the NDIS community.

Lachlan’s expertise is further enhanced through his functional medicine degree. Being a functional medicine practitioner allows him to treat a range of health issues using natural and holistic therapies that target the root causes and imbalances in the body rather than masking symptoms. 

Youthful Resilience is an embodiment of Lachlan’s life work and mission. It is personally driven by his own struggles and challenges that he faced and successfully overcame in his younger years. Lachlan believes resilience is the ability to overcome adversity and emerge from the experience stronger, wiser and more capable.
