I was first introduced to Ellice to support me with a policy I wanted to create.

Ellice took my initial thoughts and concepts and turned them into a valuable business document, using her expertise and knowledge to include the key information needed.

Working with Ellice has been a pleasure and from that first policy document, Ellice has supported me in bringing further important policies to life.

Her extensive knowledge of policy writing, mental health and suicide prevention have been invaluable, as well as her attention to detail. One of the many reasons I continue to work with Ellice is her unending passion and commitment to making a difference in society that truly resonates with my values.

I just joined “How to support employee mental health as we move to a ‘new normal’ – Ellice Whyte, Mindset Mental Health” and it was absolutely brilliant.  SO helpful; […] from a personal perspective it was incredibly helpful.  Ellice was an excellent speaker.

Ellice is a very professional and engaging practitioner. She combines a deep knowledge of her subject with practical insights and a relaxed presentational style. She created a safe and open space in which all the course participants were able to contribute and dealt sensitively with some difficult subjects. The course was just the right mix of theory and practice. I learned a great deal and by the end of her training and felt much better equipped to provide appropriate support to people who are struggling with their mental health.

We really enjoyed Mindset’s training! I’ve already put my listening skills to the test in a meeting this week. Instead of jumping in and expressing an “I know what you mean – this is what I did in a similar situation” type response, I let the person sit with the comment and asked if there was anything I, or the manager, could do to further support them. It felt a more productive and positive meeting… I feel it worked really well with our staff.

Ellice was really easy to work with in setting up a series of ‘talking about mental health’ sessions, suggesting topics and listening to our needs so we could arrange them in a way that worked for the organisation. The first session ‘understanding and managing stress’ was really powerful and participants learned some simple underpinning theories and practices that are easy to remember and apply. It was run virtually and Ellice encouraged sharing in a safe and compassionate way so that we felt safe to contribute or not as worked for us. I left the session feeling better, more able to manage my own stress and better equipped to understand and respond supportively to others. 

The course was brilliant. Ellice made sure that everything was really clear and well understood before moving forward with any further information. The course was set up as a safe and open space where everybody felt confident to join in with conversations and ask questions when they needed to, which was so important with the topics that we were covering. Ellice is really knowledgable and was able to help with any questions or queries. My confidence to deal with a mental health situation has massively increased having finished the course, and I would highly recommend to anybody to book on and learn to become a Mental Health First Aider.

A brilliantly lead course that solidified my understanding of mental health issues with young people. The delivery was confident and compassionate. Would highly recommend for other schools.

We asked Ellice to deliver a presentation on wellbeing to our large and diverse team of Franchisees & Franchisors. Our brief was a tad sketchy as we ourselves were grasping with how best to support our network in an often stressful and sometimes lonely position as a self-employed business people. Ellice put together an incredibly engaging and accessible presentation with numerous attendees commenting on how much they took from what Ellice shared with them. Furthermore, our events were multiple and held across the country with contrasting audience sizes. Ellice was able to communicate effectively with our team regardless of whether part of an audience that was 15 strong or 150. Our team took an awful lot away from Ellice and our business has gained some valuable kudos with its members as a result of having Ellice as part of our event. I can highly recommend her.
