Hello...

​

My name is Rosslyn Whellams and I live in Rayleigh, Essex with my husband and two children. For 20 years I have taught Psychology and supported students on issues such as stress management, self confidence and anxiety. Since the pandemic people suffering from mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety and phobias has increased exponentially. I saw first hand the effect this awful situation was having as a mother to my two children, as a teacher to my students, to my clients as a therapist as well as to my friends and family.

​

I have always believed that emotional health is just as important as physical health. Unfortunately help in these areas can be very hard to access. My goal is to provide effective affordable support to people who are having problems with their self esteem, self confidence and self control as these are the foundations of stress, anxiety, fears and depression. However if you learn how to increase and control these aspects it gives you the self esteem, emotional control, self belief and confidence to feel empowered and ready to face any challenges you are faced with.

 

For the last two years, after gaining my diplomas in Emotional Health Coaching and Positive Psychology, I have run my own private Therapeutic Coaching Practice and now also work as a Coach for CAHMS and the NHS. In this role I provide support for children and young people between the ages of 8 to 18 in order to help them to take back their emotional control in order to increase their self esteem, confidence and resilience. I also support the parents of my referrals so they are better in tune with their child’s needs and the skills, tools and techniques which they are learning in their session with me. This allows families to work together to help their loved one during difficult times which is hugely effective and satisfying.

​

 We can and deserve to feel happy and content but it can take work, effort and guidance. I am passionate about Coaching as it offers Clients something other therapies do not… control. My favourite aspect is that people are the key to your own success. As long as you have the drive and motivation to make that change anything is possible!

​

I look forward to hearing from you soon
