Hi everyone, my name is Helen and I am a Spotlight Practitioner at Edshift. I bring to my role over twenty years experience working with children and young people as a teacher and manager of my own business. The large majority of this work has been within Calderdale primary and secondary schools, where I have been lucky enough to meet some amazing children and young people along the way.
I have a passion for supporting young people struggling with their mental health and emotional wellbeing. Through my love of yoga, mindfulness and meditation I bring practical strategies that can help in difficult times, as well as an empathetic listening ear.
In my spare time I love to spend time with my two daughters, reading, crafting and watching tv. I have a passion for the arts, regularly visiting local cinemas, art galleries and theatres, enjoying keeping up to date with the latest exhibitions at places such as The Yorkshire Sculpture Park and further afield.
