Camilla Foster

My approach is person-centred, strengths-based and supportive. As a qualified Occupational Therapist, I have experience across physical and mental health settings, including rehabilitation, community services and mental health and recovery-focused practice.

I believe everyone has individual strengths, abilities and potential. My aim is to help you recognise these, build confidence and develop the skills needed to work towards your personal, academic and wellbeing goals.

My teaching and coaching style is friendly, relaxed and collaborative. I take time to understand your individual needs, interests, learning preferences and what you hope to achieve. I adapt my sessions accordingly, using open conversations, guided questions, practical exercises and reflective activities to encourage learning, self-awareness and personal development.

I can support you with developing confidence, improving motivation, managing stress, building resilience, developing organisational skills and overcoming barriers that may be affecting your progress. I also encourage practical goal setting, helping you break down challenges into smaller, realistic and achievable steps.

I aim to create a safe, welcoming and non-judgemental environment where you feel listened to and comfortable asking questions, sharing difficulties and exploring new ideas. I recognise that everyone learns differently and that progress is not always linear, so I work at your pace and celebrate individual achievements along the way.

Above all, I want you to feel empowered, encouraged and confident in your own abilities, leaving each session with greater understanding, practical tools and a clearer sense of direction.
