Who We Are
A small, multi-disciplinary team of dedicated professionals with practised experience in mental health, social work, counselling, and lived experience.
Illuminate Life was founded by Rhonda Kelly, after her work in the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Childhood Sexual Abuse, and completing a Master’s in Social Work at Griffith University while balancing full-time work and motherhood.
Rhonda’s professional experience has taught her that the most effective support empowers individuals to build self-determination, rather than doing things for them. This is the founding inspiration behind Illuminate Life. Our mission is to provide genuine, tailored support services that recognise each individual’s unique journey.
