Welcome – I’m so glad you’re here.
This is a space where I hope you’ll find encouragement, gentle insight, and practical tools to support the hearts and minds in your care – whether that’s in your family, your classroom, your workplace, or within yourself.
If you’d like to explore ways we might work together, I’d love to connect.








My work centres on promoting emotional intelligence, resilience, mental well-being, and growth — whether in individuals, families, schools, or workplaces. In addition to therapy and assessment work with children, adolescents, and parents, I offer private coaching and mentoring for adults and leaders who want to deepen their self-awareness, enhance their relationships, and unlock greater personal and professional potential.
I also partner with organisations and corporate teams, delivering keynote talks, workshops, and transformation programmes that foster empowered, emotionally intelligent, and high-performing cultures. My corporate work draws on both the latest psychological insights and deeply human, practical approaches to growth and mindset transformation.
“On behalf of the entire Atholl Heights Primary School staff, we would like to extend our gratitude for yesterday’s Heart Led Education Workshop.
Naomi your passion is infectious and the message was thought provoking and insightful. We can not wait to implement your ideas with our learners and community to ensure the heart is always the core of our educational philosophy.
Thank you for your time and energy (lots of it!) given to our staff yesterday. I certainly will be recommending that other schools make contact with you.
We look forward to welcoming you back to Atholl Heights in the near future.“
“I wanted to express my gratitude for yesterday’s talk by Naomi. It was truly one of the most valuable and informative talks I’ve attended as a teacher. For so long, we’ve been made to feel that our mental health doesn’t matter – that the focus should always be on the students and their parents.
It’s evident that we can’t perform at our best when we’re emotionally drained. As teachers, we often invest so much in our roles at school that we miss out on valuable time for ourselves. Naomi highlighted the importance of this and emphasized that each of us needs different things to recharge. This message really resonated with me.
Thank you again for this insightful experience.”
“Thank you for your kind words of support and encouragement. It was such a joy hosting you at Sweet Valley. I am hopeful that you will join us again in the not-too-distant future so that our community can, once again, be reminded of the things that really matter in parenting and education.”
“Wow, wow, wow!
My 4 week journey with you has been phenomenal. I have had so many AHA moments. One of my biggest takeaways was that I have the power to break the generational curse of anxiety in my family. I CHOOSE to heal myself so that my two beautiful girls (Olivia and Rachael) don’t ever have to feel ashamed of their emotions or the need to be perfect.
I have loved the ‘homework’ and I already feel myself healing a little more every day.
Thank you for sharing all your wisdom, knowledge and valuable insights. These are skills that I will strive to implement every day into my family’s life.
Sending you an abundance of gratitude!
Cannot wait to purchase your book in August!”
