Why Train with New Leaf Health
“This course was great! it covered such a range of sensitive subjects amazingly, giving me the skills and knowledge to now feel comfortable to go and apply this in my role as a mental health first aider.”
MHFA Course Delegate
“As an anxiety sufferer, I felt today’s course was very eye-opening, informative and reassuring. I have taken away knowledge to highlight “triggers” I personally struggle with and turn them into coping techniques.”
Managing Anxiety Course Delegate
“This course made me consider the process an event can have that can lead to stress, and techniques on how to reduce that stress. This reflection also helped me step back and see that I do have my own techniques that I would use but just didnt know I was! “
