Tina Gulliver - Clinical Manager
I provide oversight for the clinical services that we provide at WellStop, looking at ways we can continually improve and ensure our service is the best it can be for all that access it.
I completed my Social Work degree in 2006 and since that time have been in the field of Sexual Violence. I am passionate about the work we do and feel that the services we provide offer those affected by sexual harm- hope, support, and a safe place.
In my time outside of work I enjoy spending time with my husband, adult children and my six rambunctious grandsons. Living rurally on the Taranaki coast also means I get to enjoy nature at its best and worst.
