About Us

WHY was CWSS ESTABLISHED?

Welcome to Calming Waves Support, where our journey began from a place of personal experience and the recognition of significant gaps in support services for individuals with disabilities and those facing mental health challenges.

As parents, we understand the struggles of finding adequate support for our loved ones. Our own quest for a support worker and witnessing our son’s experience with bullying emphasized the need for inclusive and genuine support systems.

Out of these challenges arose Calming Waves Support, a heartfelt initiative aimed at providing a sanctuary—a safe, enjoyable, and inclusive environment—for individuals living with psychosocial conditions. We recognized that traditional clinical interventions often fall short, so we embraced a non-clinical, activity-based approach.

At Calming Waves Support, we advocate for a holistic approach to mental health support, one that values the importance of fun, engagement, and community in the healing process. Our dedication stems from personal experience and a deep commitment to improving the lives of others.

We believe in the transformative power of our camps. Beyond offering support, we provide a space where individuals can find belonging, empowerment, and a sense of purpose. Calming Waves Support is more than just a program—it’s a beacon of hope, born from empathy, resilience, and the desire to make a positive difference in the world.

Join us at Calming Waves Support, where every wave brings healing, every activity fosters growth, and every moment is infused with compassion. Together, let’s ride the waves of change and create a brighter tomorrow for all.

Meet the owner

Danielle Lines

I’m a devoted mother of four wonderful children, each with their unique strengths and challenges.

My journey as a parent has led me to become deeply familiar with the complexities of ADHD, Autism, and intellectual disabilities, as all of my children live with ADHD, two live with Autism, and one lives with Autism and an intellectual disability.

While my initial passion led me to pursue a Bachelor of Social Science with a focus on forensic psychology, I made the difficult decision to defer my studies due to the increasing demands of caring for my family. However, this pause in my academic journey opened up a new path for me to follow my calling in supporting others.

In 2022, I founded Calming Waves support services, driven by my unwavering commitment to providing holistic and person-centered support to individuals and families navigating their mental health journeys. My previous experience as a disability employment consultant has equipped me with valuable insights into the challenges faced by those with disabilities, further fuelling my dedication to making a positive impact in their lives.

I’m deeply passionate about empowering people and their families to thrive despite the obstacles they may encounter. Through Calming Waves, I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment where individuals can access the personalized support they need to flourish. My journey is one of resilience, compassion, and a steadfast determination to make a difference in the lives of others.
