Farisha Gani 

I am a dedicated and compassionate professional with a Bachelor’s degree in Medical Science and currently completing a Master of Social Work at University of Canberra. I bring over 16 years of experience in customer service, which has strengthened my communication skills, empathy and ability to work effectively with people from diverse backgrounds, including those experiencing distress or complex needs.

My academic background in medical science, combined with my developing social work practice, allows me to take a holistic and evidence-based approach to care. I am particularly interested in working within a complex mental health setting, where I can support individuals through trauma-informed, person-centred practice while collaborating with multidisciplinary teams.

I am highly motivated to continue building my skills as a social worker and am committed to promoting dignity, recovery and positive outcomes for individuals with complex mental health presentations.
