These opportunities for young people are positive ways to help emotions and feelings be expressed in a safe and fun environment when words simply aren’t enough.

Feedback from previous participants of Libby's courses:

"Libby is an exceptional instructor and really delivers the courses well. I will seek to have Libby deliver more to my staff in future training events."

"The instructor was very mindful of the nature of the course and the potential triggers that could arise. She respectfully made the course light enough to engage the participants in a way that made everyone comfortable. But at the same time she ensured the severity of the topic was understood by all."

"Libby was very approachable and made everything understandable and everyone feel comfortable.. Would 100% recommend her to others."
