The Story of Recharge Wellness and Our Mission to Transform Mental Health Support.

The Recharge story started off the back of Founders Nick and Femi identifying thousands of people within the system falling between the gaps: the gap between being ‘okay’ in the community and needing hospitalisation. After working many years in the public health sector, we realised people need simpler ways to access effective mental health support, regardless of their stage, situation or status.  

Coupling effective technological solutions including software platforms with high quality professionals, we found that having a discreet and tailored approach to skill acquisition along with support from experienced professionals was the most effective way of reduce signs and symptoms of anxiety within our demographic.

our vision

A future where everyday Australians have adequate access to mental health support regardless of their stage, status or situation.

the mission

Recharge conceptualises and delivers innovative opportunities, for everyday Australians to get support for their mental health.

About Me

I’ve always been fascinated by human behaviour—what drives us, how we make sense of challenges, and how we find meaning in our lives. As a psychologist, I focus on creating a space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to take meaningful action. Outside of work,I enjoy physical exercise, cooking, coaching junior sport, and unwinding with my family and our beloved golden retriever.

My Approach to Therapy

My approach integrates evidence-based therapies like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with existential philosophy and stoic principles, helping clients find clarity and control in a chaotic world. I focus on practical strategies that encourage action, meaning, and self-awareness, in addition to symptom relief. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, feeling stuck in life, or grappling with deeper existential questions, I work with you to build resilience, reconnect with your values, and take meaningful steps toward change. My goal is to help you gain a sense of agency and purpose in an unpredictable world.
