Nicole is an AASW-accredited social worker who brings deep experience from across the mental health, family violence, and homelessness sectors. She joins Polaris Lawyers with a strong background in client advocacy, including volunteer work supporting women diagnosed with gynaecological cancers.
Nicole works from a trauma-informed, strengths-based, and anti-oppressive framework, and is currently completing her accreditation to provide social work supervision through the AASW.
At the heart of Nicole’s practice is a commitment to helping clients find their voice and rebuild confidence after trauma. She understands the emotional impact that legal processes can have, and is passionate about creating a safe, inclusive, and non-judgemental space where people feel supported in expressing their needs.
Nicole is proud to be part of the Polaris team and values the opportunity to contribute to a firm that prioritises empathy, flexibility, and client-centred care.
When she’s not working, Nicole enjoys long walks in nature, baking bread, and sharing quiet moments (and cups of tea) with her cat, Lenny.
