working with organisations who care about wellbeing

I'm Shannon,  First Aid for Mental Health instructor and Emotional Field Therapy Practitioner. 

I work with organisations and individuals who care about cultivating positive mental health and well-being.  

My expertise is teaching mental health awareness coupled with  practical, everyday, mindfulness and mediation based tools. I literally show you how to develop healthy coping strategies that you can easily call upon when life is stressful or overwhelming. I teach tried and tested  meditation, mindfulness and self-care methods for reducing anxiety, stress and worry.  Making you more resilient  and prepared to face the inevitable ups- and downs of life.  

When I deliver a workplace  mental health and well-being  session it's always more than just a box ticking exercise, a sustained approach to openly discussing mental health and well-being has the power to be a competitive advantage in business. Imagine a workforce who actually want to be there.  Less absenteeism, less stress,  less anxiety, less worry, less anger.  Increased productivity, creativity and calmness.

Students who are compassionate about the mental health and well-being of their peers and are self-aware enough to know if,  or when they should confide in someone for themselves.

Individuals who are ready to admit that they aren't happy and want to make positive changes that influence their outlook on life.

• I teach FAA Ofqual regulated First Aid for Mental Health qualifications. Suitable for workplaces, teaching staff, senior leaders or community groups. 4 hour, 1 day or 2 day courses available. 

• Mental health and well-being workshops suitable for workplaces, teaching staff or community groups. Open discussion to break the stigma that is still attached to mental health conditions. I teach practical well-being tools that are easy to implement into daily life to reduce stress, anxiety, worry and overwhelm.  See the Corporate page for more detail.

• I'm passionate about working with young people to develop strong minded, resilient adults who are open and honest about their  own mental health and compassionate about the well-being of others. I deliver classroom workshops, school assemblies or I can work closely with smaller groups to tackle sensitive subjects like negative self-talk, anxiety and bullying.

• I work 1-2-1 with clients to teach a  technique called Emotional Field Therapy (EFT)- also known as tapping. Perfect for people who have tried meditation and mindfulness to ease anxiety, depression, overwhelm, phobias or the desire to feel happier and more peaceful but without real success or break through moments. EFT has had proven clinical value and is often prescribed by GP's as non-medical therapy. I couple EFT techniques with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy theories to help clients get from where they are, to where to they want to be see my latest EFT reviews here.

Please note that because of the current social distancing measures I am delivering workshops remotely.
