about

Olivia-Louise

Olivia has work experience in various community mental health settings including in supported accommodation as well as an inpatient psychiatric hospital. Since 2017 she has worked for the South East Coast Ambulance Service and also volunteers for Shout crisis text line service.

As a young person, Olivia received a diagnosis of bulimia, to then experiencing depression and finally receiving a diagnosis of a personality disorder in her early 20's. From a personal perspective she know what's it like to be on the receiving end of stigma and discrimination as well as support, understanding and compassion which has been central to her recovery.

Like the rest of the team at Your Wellbeing Hub, Olivia is passionate about making mental health an everyday conversation and empowering people with the knowledge, confidence and skills to support themselves and others.
