Every story has its first chapter, and we wrote ours in the serene landscapes of Ararat, Victoria, in 2018. We began with a simple belief: everyone deserves understanding and support. We started Ararat Wellness with a mission to be that beacon of hope and guidance, extending our services Australia-wide to NDIS participants, Home Care package recipients, and private clients by special arrangement.
Our strength lies in our team— our dedicated Behavioural Support Practitioners and Counsellors. Whether the client prefers an in-person session or the convenience of a secure telehealth platform, we’re here, ready to be a part of their story, ensuring every chapter is filled with growth and understanding.
