What I offer
Early Mental Health and
Wellbeing Support in Secondary Schools

Workshops for teenagers
During adolescence, mental wellbeing often experiences fluctuations as young people navigate numerous physical, emotional, and social changes. This period can be challenging due to academic pressures, evolving identity, peer relationships, and family dynamics. Supporting adolescents to develop wellbeing and resilience strategies is crucial in helping them manage these everyday challenges effectively.
Resilience enables young people to recover from setbacks and adapt positively to stress. Teaching coping mechanisms such as mindfulness, problem-solving skills, and emotional regulation can empower adolescents to maintain balance.
