Trauma-informed emotional wellbeing

Emotional wellbeing, made understandable.

Your brain isn't broken. Your nervous system is doing its job, just a bit too well. Headstrong Co brings that understanding into workplaces, with on-site clinics, training and support your people will actually use, and into everyday life with workbooks and 1-1 sessions.

Founded and led by a qualified Social Worker and senior mental health practitioner.

Wellbeing that shows up. Literally.

Most organisations already have something in place. An EAP number on the wall, a few Mental Health First Aiders, a wellbeing week once a year. And people still struggle quietly until it turns into sickness absence. Headstrong comes to your site and gives your people somewhere to talk before things escalate.

Stress and burnout building upLong hours, heavy workloads and people running on empty.
Sickness absence that keeps climbingBy the time it's logged, it's often stress, anxiety or low mood.
People struggling before they hit crisisAnd nothing in place for that in-between bit.
Managers who don't know what to saySo they say nothing, or say the wrong thing.
Support that nobody usesThe EAP exists on paper. Staff don't pick up the phone.
The core service

On-site wellbeing clinics

Two practitioners with frontline mental health experience set up at your workplace for a half or full day. Staff book a private slot, get referred by a manager or Mental Health First Aider, or just turn up.

  • Private one-to-one conversations, away from the desk, the line or the site cabin
  • A personal wellbeing plan for everyone who comes
  • Practical take-home tools matched to the pressures of their job
  • A clear route into more support if someone needs it

The support around it

Built around the clinic, so nobody gets seen once and then left to it.

  • Advice & support lineFor your team between clinics, so nobody's sitting with it until next month.
  • 6-week support blocksStructured follow-on support for anyone who needs more after clinic.
  • Training for staff & managersStress, burnout and the nervous system in plain English, and the confidence to have the conversation.
  • Anonymised HR insightThe themes coming up across your workforce. No names, no personal details.
  • Support for helping professionsFor teams carrying heavy work: burnout, compassion fatigue and vicarious trauma.
Why Headstrong

Works alongside your EAP. Reaches the people it doesn't.

An EAP is a good safety net. But it relies on someone who's already struggling picking up the phone to a stranger. We go the other way and turn up where your people already are.

Typical phone-based support

  • Staff have to spot that they need help, then call a stranger
  • Usually used once things have already got bad
  • Little visibility for you on what's really going on
  • Often generic, not shaped around your industry or roles

With Headstrong

  • We're physically on site, so support is visible and easy to use
  • People talk to us early, before it turns into absence or crisis
  • Every conversation ends with a practical personal plan
  • You get anonymised themes you can actually act on
  • Delivered by practitioners with real mental health and safeguarding experience
How it works

From struggling quietly to having a plan.

What happens for your employee, and what comes back to you.

  1. 1

    Someone's struggling

    Stress, sleep, home life, burnout. They don't need a diagnosis to come and see us.

  2. 2

    Headstrong clinic

    A private conversation on site with a practitioner who gets it.

  3. 3

    Personal wellbeing plan

    They leave with practical tools and a plan that fits their actual life.

  4. 4

    More support, if needed

    A 6-week block, the advice line, or the right outside service.

  5. Insight for you

    Anonymised themes come back to you, so you can see what's shifting and act on it.

Getting started is simple

Discovery call

Jade, founder of Headstrong Co, holding the Anxiety Workbook
Hi, I'm Jade

The friend who happens to know psychology.

I'm a qualified Social Worker working in senior mental health roles, including psychiatric liaison in A&E. My career has taken me through children's services, crisis services, personality disorder pathways and support for care leavers, and I've seen what happens when people don't get help early enough.

Headstrong Co is everything that work has taught me, minus the clinical language. I'm also a working mum juggling the same chaos as everyone else, so I know the difference between advice that sounds nice and advice that actually works on a Tuesday.
