The Story of brain Sense
Brain Sense began as a dream to empower people with science-based, practical knowledge about the brain. Instead of being tightly held by health professionals, the information would be made available to people online, across the globe.
After two years incubating the idea, Brain Sense was launched as a service that promotes positive behaviour change through understanding the brain. This approach is applied across positive behaviour support for NDIS participants and older adults with dementia, as well as individuals seeking a personalised roadmap to achieve their goals.
Danielle has joined forces with Emma who offers years of experience in the health, disability and aged care sectors.
Our mission is to empower individuals to unlock their full potential by providing practical, brain-based support that fosters positive behaviour change and enables the achievement of personalised goals.
