Meet Cate – Founder, Visionary, and Heart Behind The Rewilding Collective

The Rewilding Collective began as a wild seed - a multidimensional vision of a community of practice which mimics the fruiting ecology of mycelium networks and organically delivers healing through deepening connection to self, other and the planet. It was hatched in the company of a group of gifted neurodivergent healers, clinicians and practitioners who gathered around cups of tea, good whiskey and the fire-pit at Cate’s house late one winter evening.

With a rich professional background spanning leadership in the NGO sector, case work, wilderness therapy, teaching, project management, curriculum design, advocacy, and community development, Cate has spent her life walking alongside others — often those most at risk — with compassion, clarity and fierce integrity. Cate has worked in prisons, hospitals, schools and has lectured in the tertiary sector.

She has mapped the dehumanising influence of institutions on humanity, and is committed to weaving ancient medicine with modern applications to re-wild the human soul.

For over 25 years she has supported clients across the globe with their mental health, emotional wellbeing, and spiritual growth. Now she is focussed on investing in the next generation of practitioners, and is developing a teaching and training program based on her unique model of care - The Integrated Triadic Convergence Model.

Cate’s books are closed and she is no longer accepting new clients, however she can provide intake, triage and clinical care advice to clients under our Team Treat approach.

    Querida

    Grad. Dip Counselling, RYT, M.A.C.A
    Counsellor
    Location:     North Perth & Telehealth

    Querida is a no-nonsense, freedom-loving, heart-whisperer whose superpowers include lovingly challenging your beliefs and perceptions.

    Unafraid to have the conversations that matter, the uncomfortable gritty ones, the scary ones that bring a sense of ‘Can I really say/do/be THAT?’

    Born and raised in a small town on Australia’s east coast, Querida spent much of her young adult life exploring this wide country and the world, learning from different cultures and absorbing experiences that have shaped her perception of life. Simultaneously, traveling the inner world for over two decades has given her a steady compass, which she uses to guide you in exploring your own inner world, learning to confidently swim and diving deep into the core truth of you.

    Querida believes in finding simplicity in life, whether that be external (she actually lives in a tiny house on wheels), or internal by cutting through the stories we tell ourselves that make life more complicated than it needs to be.

    Naomi

    BSocSc & MCou
    Counsellor
    Location    : Dunsborough & Telehealth

    Naomi brings a unique blend of creativity, insight, mindfulness, and over 20 years of professional experience to her practice as a therapist, supporting clients through a full range of emotional challenges — including trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and personal fulfilment.

    She holds a Master’s in Counselling, is a qualified life coach, and has undertaken training in Gottman Couples Counselling, Hakomi, Narrative Therapy, and yoga and somatic therapies.

    Naomi’s extensive work in trauma recovery has shaped her holistic approach, recognising people as whole beings. She works not only at the cognitive level but also addresses the impacts of emotions on the body, mind, and spirit. Passionate about helping people access their true potential, Naomi guides her clients to connect with their innate healing capacities.
