ABOUT US

About Me.

My name is Fanaye Solomon, and I am the owner and operator of Empowering Journey, a company specialising in Support Coordination, Specialist Support Coordination, and Psychosocial Recovery. Originally from Ethiopia, I was raised in a small town called Växjö in Sweden and speak four languages fluently.

I hold a Master's degree in Social Work and have specialised expertise in NDIS coordination and service. With over 15 years of experience, I have had the privilege of working with some of the most vulnerable individuals in our community, spanning diverse cultural backgrounds. My extensive background includes working in the homelessness sector, supporting clients with disabilities, mental health issues, substance abuse, domestic violence, and housing challenges.

Throughout my career, I have gained invaluable experience working with families, youth, adults, and Indigenous clients with complex needs. I am well-versed in the high-quality services available to my clients and diligently explore the best options to support their individual needs and build their capacity. Ensuring that people feel heard, understood, and included in their life's journey is of paramount importance to me.

I am passionate about walking alongside my clients, supporting, empowering, and encouraging them to recognise their potential and strengths. Together, we plan and achieve positive outcomes. My goal is to provide clients with options, enabling them to choose and control their own paths in life. Building confidence and identifying strengths is the cornerstone of my values and best practice approach.

At Empowering Journey, my passion and focus are to encourage, provide options, and assist my clients in exercising their voice with unwavering support while fostering their journey towards independence.

At Empowering Journey, we pride ourselves in offering our participants a high standard of support delivered in a respectful and culturally safe environment. Our participants are our highest priority, and we will walk alongside you to work towards creating opportunities for positive outcomes and achieving your NDIS goals. Our mission is to provide options and the support require to empower your journey towards fulfilled life and create positive pathway to  recovery.
