Elevated Educators was created from a simple belief: educators deserve professional learning that understands both the students in front of them and the reality of the job they are doing. We bring together psychology and education to make evidence practical, usable and relevant to everyday school life.
Understanding behaviour, regulation, wellbeing and diverse learners.
Grounded in classroom reality, school context and implementation.
Professional learning educators can actually use.
Educators are expected to respond to increasingly complex behaviour, diverse learning needs and student wellbeing — often while managing significant demands on their own time, energy and wellbeing.
We saw an opportunity to bring two perspectives together: the psychological understanding of what drives behaviour and regulation, and the practical understanding of what actually works inside schools and classrooms.
Elevated Educators was created to bridge that gap. Our aim is not to give educators more theory or more things to do. It is to help them understand what is happening, choose responses more confidently and make the work they are already doing more effective.
Lisa brings more than two decades of experience in teaching and educational leadership. Her perspective keeps our work grounded in the realities of classrooms: competing priorities, diverse learners, limited time and the need for strategies that educators can realistically implement.
Lianne brings more than 15 years of clinical psychology experience, including work with children, adolescents and families. She brings psychological understanding of behaviour, emotional regulation, executive functioning, neurodiversity and wellbeing into the education context.
Our work has created opportunities to contribute to broader conversations about education, behaviour and educator wellbeing — from national entrepreneurship programs to television and education podcasts.
Elevated Educators represented the Education category in the 2025 Kickstarter Challenge, culminating in the Grand Final at Parliament House in Canberra.
Lianne and Lisa have been invited to share their perspectives on teaching, behaviour and educator wellbeing through television and education-focused podcasts.
Everything we create is designed around the same question: how can we turn useful evidence into something educators can understand, adapt and actually use?
We help educators look beneath what they can see to better understand behaviour, regulation, executive functioning and diverse learning needs.
Psychological and educational concepts become clear, realistic strategies that make sense within the constraints of real classrooms.
We focus on implementation and adaptation rather than adding another list of things educators are expected to do.
