Rebecca Owen-Childs

I deliver mental health training that is tailored to your needs and designed to be engaging, inclusive and practical. Sessions are dynamic, with plenty of participation, discussion and real world relevance, so people feel involved rather than talked at.

I create a positive, relaxed learning environment while covering important and sometimes challenging topics. I keep things light where appropriate, using lived experience to help bring mental health conditions to life and to explore practical coping strategies and skills that people can actually use.

Training can be delivered in a variety of formats depending on what works best for you. This may include digital resources, group activities, boards and pens, or online quizzes. Everything is adapted to suit the audience, the setting and the purpose of the session.

I have worked as the Lead Recovery Coach in an NHS Recovery College for eight years and bring extensive professional experience alongside lived experience of complex PTSD, severe depressive disorder, generalised anxiety disorder and ADHD. I share my story openly and appropriately to build understanding, challenge stigma and support meaningful learning.

If you are looking for mental health training that is informative, inclusive and human, tailored to your needs and delivered with warmth and honesty, I would be very happy to work with you. I deliver sessions one to one or with groups.

My approach is grounded, compassionate and realistic. I meet people where they are, respect different levels of understanding and confidence, and focus on building knowledge, confidence and hope in a way that feels safe, accessible and genuinely useful.
