George Mudford 

Founder | Wellmatters/Mind Over Matters

BSW (AMHSW) | MBA | BA (Politics)

Im a degree-qualified practitioner who began working in the field in the early 2000s, with a career that has taken me across diverse sectors, systems, and communities. Today, alongside my therapeutic work at Mind Over Matters, my passion lies in supporting “for-purpose” organisations, their leaders, and professionals to succeed, adapt, and grow sustainably—without losing sight of their mission.

Through Well Matters, I bring together a deep understanding of people and systems, combining clinical experience with business acumen and strategic leadership skills.

My professional journey has taken me into areas including:

• Community development

• Statutory environments (justice, child protection, family services)

• Mental health and AOD (alcohol & other drugs)

• Homelessness and housing

• Early years development

• NDIS and disability

• Governance, policy, and tender writing

• National community awareness campaigns

I understand how easy it is for individuals, teams, or organisations to become stuck—or drift away from their original purpose. My aim is to walk alongside others to reflect, refocus, and re-energise their path forward.
