We are constantly hearing about the need to ensure that everyone that requires support with their mental health gets just that. We are thrilled that the Post Office, Lord Sugar and WH Smiths are viewing the mental health of their staff as important as their physical health.

Those struggling with their mental health need everyone’s help. We as an organisation are here to support anyone, whether that is with 1-2-1 counselling/therapy or delivering 1st Aid for Mental Health. Are you doing your bit too?

Meet the fabulous Chiara who joins our Tappy Twins Family. She beings a wealth of experience and we are thrilled to have her on board.

 

‘My name is Chiara McMaster and I am a Counsellor and Psychotherapist based in Ross on Wye, Herefordshire.  I run my own private practice and have experience working in schools in Manchester.  I love working with children, young people and adults to help empower stronger mental health and happier lives.  Children have the right to be heard; I consider it my role to help make this happen.  I believe every child should be loved, be taken care of and should have a happy childhood, free from any kind of abuse.
I trained and qualified as a therapist in Manchester which gave me great opportunities to work with a diverse range of clients.  During my placements, I gained experience working as a Psychotherapist in GP surgeries with adults as well as in schools with children.  It was clear to me even then how much I loved working with both client groups.
Since University, I trained in Applied Behaviour Analysis and worked both in schools and privately as a Behaviour Therapist; I worked with children who have autism and other additional needs. I also set up my private practice and I set up a Counselling service in a school in Bolton before relocating back to Herefordshire.’
