Breathe deeply, go for a walk, step outside, reconnect with nature. Our all round health depends on it

We are all story tellers. Everyone has a story to share. If yours is on your heart, make time, sit down and start writing

We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves.

Workshops, Courses and presentations

 

I deliver dynamic, evidence-informed community workshops and assemblies that inspire confidence, wellbeing, and stronger relationships within schools and the wider community. My sessions combine the latest insights from education, psychology, and counselling to create calm, engaging spaces for reflection, discussion, and growth.

School Workshops

I collaborate with schools and training institutions to deliver bespoke sessions for students, teachers, and trainee educators. Each workshop encourages self-awareness, resilience, and emotional intelligence — essential tools for both learning and life.

For students, topics include self-esteem, study skills, emotional regulation, and courage in learning, as well as popular sessions such as “Feed Your Brain”, exploring how nutrition, mindset, and self-care impact performance and focus.

For teachers and trainee educators, sessions such as “Classroom Management: Building Positive Relationships with Students” and “Relational Practice in Education” offer practical, reflective strategies for engaging with students in developmentally appropriate, compassionate ways. These CPD-style workshops help staff curate calm, inclusive classrooms that promote respect, motivation, and meaningful learning.

         Community Workshops

I run community wellbeing events that bring parents, carers, and adults together to explore emotional health, communication, and confidence. Each session provides a safe, reflective space for personal growth and shared understanding.

Workshops such as “Expressive Writing for Anxiety” offer practical tools for managing stress, building self-awareness, and easing anxious thoughts through writing. “How Children Learn” helps parents nurture their child’s motivation, study habits, and emotional balance at home — creating calmer, more confident learning experiences for the whole family.

I also facilitate the “Time Out for Parents of Teens” course, a six-week programme by Care for the Family. This empowering course helps parents of 9–18-year-olds strengthen relationships, improve communication, and manage conflict with empathy and confidence. Sessions combine discussion, reflection, and evidence-based strategies, helping families reconnect and rediscover calm, positive ways to support one another.

All my workshops aim to equip participants with practical strategies that reduce stress, foster wellbeing, and promote meaningful connection. Future projects, including “How Adults Learn”, will invite lifelong learners to explore how curiosity, creativity, and reflection can inspire renewed personal and professional growth.

                          School asssemblies

I deliver inspirational assemblies and wellbeing talks for students of all ages on topics such as the power of self-talk, empathy, resilience, and connection. Each talk blends research with storytelling and reflection, encouraging students to understand themselves — and others — with kindness and confidence.

At the heart of every session lies a clear goal: to empower schools and communities to connect, communicate, and grow through understanding, empathy, and self-belief. Together, we can nurture calmer classrooms, stronger families, and thriving young people.
