Ngapuhi
I feel privileged to be part of the team of facilitators delivering MH101® for Blueprint.
My professional career has been as a nurse and educator in mental health. My studies towards my doctorate focussed on the mental health needs of folk with disabilities, with an awareness of the impact of trauma and how important trauma-informed care is in that space.
My passion lies in assisting everyday people to gain the skills to recognise and support each other in moments of distress while demystifying the various notions around mental unwellness and other causes of distress.
My workshop facilitation is informed by an understanding of cultural safety and is delivered with appropriate humour. Adaptability to learners’ needs is key to this.
