Educator, coach and researcher.

I have been a teacher of teenagers for too long to mention, my experience has led me to want to improve their mental wellness through diverse activities.

Why?

• My experience shows an increase in low-level or emerging mental health, (often self-diagnosed) conditions.
• Because widening teenagers’ experiences helps to show them how to flourish.

I think you have ideas and suggestions you use as well, whether as a parent, sibling, social worker, educator or mental health professional.

Here are the topics I will be writing about:

• Forest bathing meets forest school for teenagers.
• Craft and creativity for wellbeing.
• Education training I have delivered to support others to develop these practices.
• Conferences and academic research to highlight the newest thinking in this field.

I would love to hear from you with ideas and suggestions of supporting teenagers with their mental well being. Connect with me, in the company of trees.
