Lived Experience Solutions (LEXs) - Michael Elwan

Michael Elwan

I’m Michael Elwan - Founder of Lived Experience Solutions (LEXs), Accredited Social Worker (AASW), PhD Candidate, and a national and state advisor in suicide prevention, trauma-informed care, and lived experience leadership. With over 15 years’ experience in mental health, social care, and policy reform, I bring a unique blend of professional knowledge and deeply personal insight to every training space I enter.

I’ve lived through trauma, cared for family members with mental health challenges, and lost loved ones to suicide. These experiences shape how I facilitate trainings - grounded in compassion, authenticity, and a fierce belief that training should not just inform but transform. My work has been delivered in corporate settings, NGOs, government agencies, schools, and peer-led organisations across Australia.
