Thirteen years and 6,000+ students across UK and UAE schools. I work with leadership teams to design, embed and measure counselling provision that survives staff turnover and evidences impact at every governors' meeting.
I'm a Mental Health Specialist in Education, speaker, and CEO of Tea of Therapy. Across thirteen years and 6,000+ students in UK and UAE schools, I've helped leadership teams move from reactive wellbeing to structured, sustainable provision β the kind that survives staff turnover, evidences impact for governors, and earns the trust of students, staff and parents alike.
I hold a Master's in Child and Adolescent Mental Wellbeing and sit on the Governor's Board for Aldar Education, contributing to pastoral care and support at leadership level.
