For much of 2021, Von (she/her) was the voice you’d hear on the other end of the phone and would greet you as you arrive at Bloom. Due to the ongoing impacts of Chronic Pain, Von has decided to prioritise her physical health (incredible boundaries!) and now works primarily from home.

Von has always enjoyed being involved in community groups and is passionate about supporting others to feel good about themselves.

Von is a mother of two and studied a Bachelor of Education prior to becoming a mother. Due to a serious injury in 2003, Von now lives with Chronic Pain. She believes in sharing transparently to reduce the stigma surrounding chronic health diagnoses.

Outside of Bloom Well-being, Von’s special interests are photography, swimming at the heated pool and spending time at the beach. Her favourite quote is from Maya Angelou, “And still I rise.”
