Ever feel like you just don't know what to do or where to start with getting your life on track?
A life mentor may be helpful to you, your life and your family.
My greatest passion in life is helping others, so I set up this business with the aim of providing a life mentoring service to individuals and families, to try to inject ideas & motivation & promote wellbeing to enable them to learn to talk, grow and live!
When my eldest started high school, her growing anxiety & lack of self esteem halted her entire education! It took 6 months before CAMHS would see her & another 5 months until her mental health was taken seriously. The school did not know how to approach the issues & didn't have the resources to support her in the way she needed. Family Support Practitioners were constantly in & out of our lives! I searched for other ways to help her, including extortionately priced counsellors & therapists to get her the support quicker than waiting in the system.
I noticed the gap that needed to be filled & so G.G Life Services began! Offering an affordable service for families, children & adolescents & adults who need quick & early interventions to assist with the difficulties of life.
A bit more about me... My name is Nicky, I am a mum to 2 teenage children & a lover of dogs! I have worked in education for 8 years & have spent half of that time working with vulnerable children with special educational needs & social & emotional mental health needs. I have mentored children, offered support & advice & devised many individual coping strategies and techniques, especially centered around mental health, social & emotional difficulties, those BIG transitions to high school & the lead up to those teenage years. I aspire to provide safe & calm environments where individuals of any age feel comfortable enough to communicate in whichever way they wish to & learn to grow & live their lives to the fullest.
I am currently studying my degree in psychological studies, having completed several professional development courses in mental health & counselling to deepen my knowledge and understanding.
This is a life long ambition of mine to build a career based on empathy & understanding and to enable everyone, especially children aged 10 to 18 to feel empowered.
Please do send me a message or an email if you have any questions.
