I recently completed my MHFA training. It was one of the most valuable things I have learnt.
It was both fun and engaging. Just two hours after completion, a colleague asked me for some information. I asked how they were and was told how they were struggling with things. Asking if I could get a quick 15 minute call in, I applied everything I had learnt. We finished the meeting with my colleague feeling better that some clear solutions had been identified and I felt proud of this simple achievement. I have checked in since with my colleague and everything is so much better.
If this had been two weeks earlier, our conversation would have been so very different.
So Ann Marie, I can only thank you and without a doubt, I would recommend you to anyone.

I have just completed my Mental Health First Aid course and loved every minute of it.
The course tutor made sure that all parties participated in the very interactive sessions which in turn meant that I personally absorbed the information given.
I would recommend AMD Health & Wellbeing to anyone wishing to become an Mental Health First Aider.

I really recommend the Mental Health First Aider course. Mental Health is not an easy topic, she was able to present all situations with empathy and made sure we were all comfortable throughout the course. I learnt a lot and I am very thankful I could be part of the course.
Ann Marie came into our work place St Brendan’s Sixth College to provide Mental Health First Aid Training to myself and 14 other colleagues. She was so friendly and engaging and made the course really enjoyable. Some of the topics are not the easiest but Ann Marie delivered them with kindness and compassion and is very knowledgable about Mental Health.
Having known Ann for quite some years now; I can honestly say that her passion for people; and positive growth mindset – are only to be admired.
Her commitment to driving awareness & importance of Mental Health not only within the workplace; but also in terms of breaking the stigmas associated with it; inspire me.
Her teaching style; and connection with an audience is ‘first class’; and one that would benefit anyone; in any sector. … more

I had the enormous pleasure and luck of attending the mental health first aid course run by @amdhealthandwellbeing with Ann Marie as our tutor for the two days. She delivered a very complex course in manageable sections, in an open and honest format, calling on her own experiences to further elaborate on certain sections of the course. Can’t recommend her and this course highly enough. Thank you and all the best,
Stephan
Anne-Marie is a wonderfully engaging MHFA trainer, very easy to listen to and the course was just the right mix of theory and practical discussions etc. Great presentation style with lots of opportunities to ask questions and talk about real life examples which all made for a really enjoyable and informative course. Thank you for a great course.
A huge thank you Ann Marie for the amazing MHFA training!!!! You made the sessions interesting and informative, dealing with really difficult subjects with sensitivity and honesty. You provided us with enough detail to ensure that we understood each of the topic areas whilst keeping us engaged and connected as a group, something which is not always easy to do via Zoom. I now have a greater understanding of the issues my colleagues and I may face and a brilliant toolkit of resources. Thank you for reiterating the need for self-care. 10/10, if you haven’t done so already, get booked on to the course, this is an absolute game changer.
