About
Phillippa Henderson
Founder & Principal Master MHFA Instructor
As the Founder I wear multiple hats, Trainer, Leader and Speaker. I was drawn to mental health education due to its profound effects on workplaces, communities, and friend’s lives. Having experienced my own struggles, and lossing friends to suicide I educate differently. From the heart. My magic lies in infusing workplaces with vibrant energy, drive, profound passion, while helping create a clear sense of purpose. The intention is to create an atmosphere that focuses on mental wellness.

It was very interesting to learn more about mental health. I feel as though this increased knowledge will not only help at work but at home as well. I am very interested in the youth mental health to assist me with my children as they grow. Thank you for educating me Phillipa

My Youth Mental Health First Aid course with Phillippa was excellent. Phillippa is passionate, engaging and held my attention for the two days. She is generous and warm, and I left feeling much more confident to help support others in a mental health crisis. Thank you Phillippa!
