Mental health and professional development for schools

Natalie Rose, Ripponlea Primary School Principal

“Over the course of the year we have built a close relationship with Heidi. She brings practicality and sound advice on all matters related to raising our children and parenting strategies.

Heidi is able tailor a presentation to suit the needs of our community and we have been very grateful during this challenging year. I would highly recommend any school community the opportunity to work with Heidi to support the mental health and wellbeing of their students and families.”

Nicole Richards, Elwood Primary School Principal

“I’ve been able to meet with Heidi to talk about the specific topics, issues and interests of our community so she can tailor her approach around what our families are facing and finding really important. It’s timely, it’s topical and it provides the kind of information they really want to know.

Our parents hear from me a lot in sessions covering curriculum and welfare, but I just don’t have the time or expertise to offer more. In this sense, having someone like Heidi - who’s an expert in the field - really takes the pressure off.

Heidi will help you build skills and strategies to address the specific interests and needs of your school community.”

Dom Linossier, Head of Middle School at Peninsula Grammar

"Heidi presented a session on Managing Independence-Seeking Teens. Our parent community showed their support for such a session in both their attendance, and their feedback; they were overwhelmingly positive in both their praise of Heidi’s content and her messaging.

Heidi’s relatable nature and conversational approach, left our families feeling empowered and positive about their journey with their young people. We are thrilled that Heidi was able to curate a tailored session for our community, and look forward to working with her again in future."
