CEO & Clinical Psychologist
On leap year day in 2016, I took a leap of faith and handed in my resignation to find Innovating Minds. My guilty pleasure is trashy TV, and I love to cross stitch.

Jane is known internationally for her work with parents and children. She’s also the author of a number of books to which help adults explore and discuss difficult issues with children including one on domestic abuse called How Are You Feeling Today Baby Bear?
Relationship Manager
Having worked in a role supporting some of the most vulnerable children in the education sector, I am really excited to work with Innovating Innovating. An organisation that is so passionate about improving children's mental health and to enable them to strive.
I have amazing family and friends, and love nothing more that spending quality time with them, walking, relaxing and enjoying their company.
Relationship Manager
Having spent the last 15 years working as a business consultant I am obsessed with helping people turning their visions into a reality. My passion for making a difference led me to setting up a social enterprise to meet the demand for scrubs for the NHS.
Working with Innovating Minds is enabling me to fulfil my purpose of improving access to mental health support for children and families. I am thrilled to be a part of a purpose driven organisation that enables me to use my skill set to ensure we can work in collaboration to make sustainable changes nationally.
Intervention Support Officer
I’m a great believer that healthy relationships and learning environments can positively contribute to a healthy mind. Having worked in a range of schools, I completed my MA in education (Psychology) to further my passion to ensure that schools were a safe and healthy space for learners to thrive. I then worked in CAMHS and saw need for more Mental Health training in schools which led me to this role.
I am excited to be a part of Innovating Minds, a forward shining organisation that bridges the gap.
You’ll find me bringing creativity, colour and a smile to my beautiful little family, friends, those around me and to my exciting new journey at Innovating Minds.
Project Coordinator
I have experience in supporting web and mobile applications and I am passionate about helping and empowering young people. In a previous role as a youth coach I was able to witness first hand the effects of direct intervention in improving young people’s lives. I am excited about working for a purpose driven organisation and helping to make a difference in my role at Innovating Minds.
Outside of work you can find me running round Birmingham, and meeting up with my friends.
Office Manager
I have a son called Cayden, who is my everything. I am very sociable, and I am very lucky to have some amazing family and friends that I love to spend time with making memories. I am really looking forward to working at Innovating Minds and having a job that will be rewarding in helping other people.
Social Impact Administrator
I'm a mom of 2 beautiful girls with a passion for helping people.
After completing my degree in Psychology and Counselling I worked in therapeutic residential childcare where I had the privilege of supporting young people heal from difficult beginnings. Whilst there I saw 1st hand the value of receiving the right help and support at the right time.
Since then I have focused my energy on being a mom and I've cherished every moment. I'm now excited to move on to the next chapter where I can balance both of my passions- my family and helping people. Innovating Minds is the place for me to do that.

After completing my degree in counselling & working with children, young people & families; improving mental health support has been a passion of mine. I have worked with military personnel, veterans & their families within a variety of settings including resettlement, NHS and the criminal justice system.
I am excited to be a part of Innovating Minds and being able to support the early intervention approach to improving access to mental health services.
Research Assistant
Since graduating with a degree in psychology in 2019, I’ve worked in patient centred roles, witnessing the effects of early intervention on people’s lives. I’m currently undertaking a MRes Clinical Psychology degree so I can gain a greater depth of knowledge and experience around mental health, interventions and evidence-based practice.
I’m working at Innovating Minds to be a part of a team that genuinely cares and adopts a client-focused approach in everything they do. I believe in their values and wish to adopt them in any future endeavours I take part in.
When not studying or volunteering I’ll most likely be playing and learning new instruments to add to my repertoire.

My interests lie in helping, and empowering, individuals to achieve their potential in all aspects of their lives.

I love writing about the exciting growth and news of Innovating Minds on our online platforms, and sharing helpful resources to enable our service to support the emotional wellbeing of more children, young people and adults.
