Wellbeing Courses
Work through tailor-made, wellbeing courses online, with a qualified practitioner. Using guided self-help and proven strategies, make long lasting, successful and effective changes to your life.
One-To-One Courses
Six Session Course
Choose the area that you would like most help with and book your first session. We will normally meet for consecutive weeks for the following five sessions. Sessions consist of an assessment of how things are, goal-setting, problem-solving, education about and strategies to manage the issue, applying them to your life, discussions and questions and home tasks to practice. Working on a one- to-one basis means that you have the flexibility to go at your own pace at a time of your choosing. You can skip ahead or spend more time where you need it and you will not have any social distractions or scheduling conflicts.
Group Courses
Six Session Course with Other Participants
Benefit from taking a course with other people. You are more likely to stick with it because there is a schedule and others are expecting your participation. Seeing others can inspire you to keep going and you can learn from other people's questions and perspectives. Talking things through often deepens understanding and you get to apply new knowledge collaboratively. You can get feedback from peers as well as the course leader and you may find learning with others more social and fun.
Session Workshops
Session Length of Your Choosing
I offer in-person workshops that come to you - whether you're a school, workplace or organisation - making it easy and convenient for your team or students to take part. These sessions are interactive, practical, and tailored to suit your group's needs. Being there in person means I can create a relaxed, engaging atmosphere that encourages real learning and connection. Workshop lengths can be from one session to a whole day, or several days, depending on what works best for you, and we'll agree on the cost together based on what you need.
Why I Started Delivering Wellbeing
Courses
I grew up almost religiously watching the Oprah Winfrey Show. It was my introduction to self-help and personal growth. I vividly listened to and tried to apply the life lessons from Oprah and her guests. At every opportunity, with everyone who would listen, I would share what I had learned in the hope of improving the lives of others. I chose professions to help me make a difference, including housing, teaching and mental health and wellbeing. They gave me the knowledge and skills, and when my circumstances changed, I decided to widen my areas and reach.
My Story
I’m married with three children, two of whom have a diagnosis of autism. For a long time, I worked as a teacher, part-time, 3 days a week and so got to spend a fair amount of time with the family, especially in the school holidays. These jobs were often contracts because the schools really wanted a full-time teacher, or else I was covering for someone on maternity leave. When it became clear that my youngest needed to attend the local nursery because of their speech and language needs, I had three roles, including tutoring children for the 11+ exam and caring for my sick mother.
Around this time Covid hit. After Covid and the death of my mother and with all three children now at school, I saw a job in wellbeing which looked as though it had been written for me! It involved returning to university for a year for further study and was full time. My plan was to go part-time once qualified.So, I got my head down and by God’s grace passed the course, although it took me extra time to do so. I then worked full time, with no school holidays, until pleading my case to go down to four days a week. I worked hard, did well and was being encouraged to go for promotion.
Great! Except as my working life was getting better and better my home life was getting worse and worse. Over the four years that I did the job there were deaths in the family, self-harm, an assault on one of the children, illness and both GCSEs and A Levels. All against the backdrop of children with autism.There just came a point – my husband’s illness and improving the life chances of my special needs children that meant I had to stop putting the mental health and wellbeing of clients before the health and wellbeing of my own family. I needed to leave my job and work when the children were at school. I needed to be available when they were around so no working after the school run or in the school holidays. Weekends became a possibility once my youngest didn’t have music lessons.
So here I am! Working for myself, during the hours that work for my family, continuing to do what I love and achieving great results for my clients. I hope that I get to help you too.
Client Reviews
“Being able to talk about personal issues and experiences made it easier. Bouncing ideas off of someone and coming up with a plan for what would work for our family. A plan to implement. It made a big difference.”
