What does Peter do at Lanara?

Why did Peter co-found Lanara?
Peter and his father started Lanara with a shared view of what good support should feel like: genuine connection, dignity and consistency. They wanted a service where every interaction is guided by psychological understanding and a real commitment to the person’s wellbeing, and where support goes beyond completing tasks to building confidence, resilience and independence.

How does Lanara support people?
Lanara provides psychosocial support, social participation, personal care and daily living assistance across Sydney. Every one of our support workers holds a university degree in psychology or a related discipline, and our approach is strengths-based and trauma-informed. We put a strong emphasis on careful matching so that participants can build a steady, trusting relationship with their worker over time.
Lanara provides support work rather than therapy, medical care or nursing care. We work alongside the clinicians, coordinators and families around each person.
