Who We Are

SAMMs is an innovative, award-winning clinical program developed by Creating New Pathways for people with the most entrenched and overlapping complex needs.

Delivered by embedded Complex Needs Clinicians, our model integrates trauma-informed therapy, neuroscience, and behavioural activation to create sustainable stability. At its core, SAMMs isn’t just a service. It’s a reform movement. 

Our Vision

We envision an Australia where individuals, regardless of trauma, diagnosis, or disadvantage, are met with compassion, clinically informed precision, and opportunity.

Our History

SAMMs was built to bridge the gap when traditional counselling, activation, and short-term interventions fail. What began as deep clinical integration evolved into a nationally implemented framework owned and governed by Creating New Pathways.
