WHAT – The Women’s Mentoring Foundation’s (WMF) purpose is to improve service delivery for Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) women and young people to help them heal from hurt, distress, grief and trauma experienced in their life. We support women primarily in rebuilding their self-leadership abilities through increasing confidence and focus – thus resulting in better mental, emotional and social health.
HOW – We do this with the aid of our grief share, healing, self-development and leadership programs, as well as speaking engagements, therapies and various events held throughout the year. Contact WMF to find out more about our speaking engagements on offer, or to book a speaking engagement.
WHY – To enrich the healing process and provide access to resources to help prevent suicide and mental breakdowns.
PREVENTION – WMF knows prevention is crucial for improved wellbeing. We go to schools, workplaces and CALD communities.
All courses, speaking engagements, and programs communicate the importance of prevention, addressing the most common behavioural patterns identified in women following trauma:
Women’s Mentoring Foundation (WMF) provides benevolent relief to women from all diverse cultures, suffering from distress and/or poverty, and helps women heal from hurt, distress, grief, and trauma. The foundation is designed for building women’s identity through increasing their confidence, focus, better mental, emotional, physical, and social wellbeing; and the prevention of suicide.
As a Registered Harm Prevention Charity we value promoting the prevention or control of human behaviour that is harmful or abusive to human beings including but not limited emotional abuse, sexual abuse, physical abuse, suicide, self-harm, substance abuse, harmful gambling and other forms of harm that is unacceptable in our society.
WMF welcomes women from Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) communities to their new beginning, to the start of their transformation from hurting to healing (following any trauma), and to the life they’ve dreamt of living, but which seemed impossible! Something which they can only do once the recovery process starts – and that can only happen at a deeper inner level.
WMF will provide emotional and social support delivered by myself and other qualified counsellors who share a common experience. By being able to provide genuine examples of overcoming adversities in our own journeys, we can inspire, empower and strengthen self-willpower in order to support our clients.
We welcome interest and support from the community in mentoring and skilled volunteer roles. We work collaboratively with many partners in the health, social and community services sector for referrals.
If you need help and support to work through hurt, pain, trauma or life’s issues,
then we can help and support you in a number of ways…

Pushpa and Team at WMF, thank you for coming into our organisation and speaking on Burnout, how to maintain better mindsets, and increasing the awareness of observing changes in our personal and fellow team member's behaviours.

“I met Pushpa after a distressing turn in my life left me with little confidence and anxiety. With her innate wisdom and understanding, Pushpa has shown me how to question the trauma of my past and overcome the blocks that were holding me back. I can trust myself again and look forward to a positive and bright future.”
Sharon Hawthorne
Having dealt directly with Pushpa at Women’s Mentoring Foundation, it's easy to see the passion built into the programs delivered by them. Life is tough; but so are you. WMF is here to remind you of this by giving you the tools and the confidence to be the best version of yourself. In doing this, WMF provides a safe space for healing, without judgment or guilt. Offering psychology based and trauma informed programs and service, WMF addresses the complex and multifactorial issues which prevent women from overcoming obstacles on their pathway to recovery and excellence. The team at WMF are here to help and share their experience with you.
