Lives Lived Well Welcome New Clinical Director (Services) – Catherine Scott

With nearly 30 years of experience across mental health, alcohol and other drug (AOD), and community health services, Catherine brings extensive clinical expertise and a steadfast commitment to quality care and clinical excellence.

Catherine began her career as a Registered Nurse in both general and mental health settings, spending 20 years in the public tertiary sector before transitioning to the not-for-profit sector in 2016.

What drew her to Lives Lived Well?

“Seeing how closely the values align with my own, particularly around leaving a legacy in mental healthcare and AOD, it really spoke to me.”

Catherine is deeply committed to trauma-informed practice and authentic partnership — with colleagues, clients and the broader community. She believes high-quality care is built on collaboration, psychological safety and a shared sense of purpose.

Outside of work, Catherine enjoys spending quality time with her family (particularly competitive board games), as well as horse riding and sailing to recharge.

We are delighted to welcome the leadership, insight and collaborative spirit Catherine brings to our team.
