About Our Challenge

Be part of the Mental Health First Aid team!!

I am an Mental Health trainer and advocate.
I volunteered at Youthline for many years - helping and talking to those affected in some way with issues sometimes too hard to deal with. Asking the hard questions and sitting in space with others.

My background in Psychology and NLP made me think I knew how to 'fix' mental health - but it is not a fix - it is a process of allowing those that are struggling to find the way for themselves, being flexible and building their mental muscle.
 
So lets bring attention to the similarity between physical health and mental health. We can train and support both and it takes noticing the need to change, acknowledging the journey ahead and putting in the work whilst being supported by others.
 
I have worked with the Mental Health Foundation for many years and shared their resources and supporting evidence in many workshops and trainings. So its perfect for me to do some hard work to pay it back!!
 

I'm completing 2,000 push-ups/situps/challenging activity in 23 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health. 

 
Please support me as I push for better mental health from 5-27 February. All proceeds help the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand build a future where mental health is treasured, protected and prioritised.
 
You can help us push for better mental health in Aotearoa by joining us or donating to our Team.
 
Yours in Mental health
