Gillian is passionate about the need to provide young people with the psychological tools to take care of their mental health and optimise their potential. She is a qualified mindfulness instructor and is currently completing her psychology undergraduate at Ulster University.

Combined with her current psychology education at Ulster University, Sarah has experience working alongside primary school-aged children and a strong passion for youth mental health.

Jack joined the team after realising the impact emotions played on his adolescent years. This sparked a passion to help others learn the skills he never knew growing up. Having relations with ADHD, Depression and OCD, he knows the benefits of emotional intelligence education first-hand.
