“Sarah was incredibly supportive throughout the training, ensuring everyone in the group understood the content and what the role of a mental health first aider really meant.
I especially appreciated the tact and empathy Sarah displayed when the heavier subjects were discussed.
Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to gain the qualification, whether for work or personal interest.”

Customer Reviews
“Fantastic in-person training with Sarah, who is an expert facilitator. This potentially emotive subject and content is delivered in a way that gives you grounded insight, practical tools and clarity of your role as a Mental Health First Aider. As a leader, this has expanded my awareness to support my team even more. I would highly recommend.”

“Sekular provided Mental Health First Aid training at our company. Sarah was an outstanding trainer who navigated difficult topics in a personal and empathetic manner. Everyone walked away feeling much more confident about our ability to help others.”

“Stress and poor mental health affect every workplace, whether it’s talked about or not.
Most people want to help when a colleague is struggling. What stops them is not knowing what to say, or worrying they’ll make it worse. This training changes that.”
