About Kirsty
Hello! I’m Kirsty, an educator and the founder of Happy Minds. I hold a Master’s degree in Education specialising in Psychology of Education, an Honours degree in Psychology, and a PGCE. My academic and professional background brings together psychology, education and neuroscience, with a particular focus on understanding how young people learn and develop within educational environments.
I believe that every learner is different, yet students are often expected to succeed without ever being taught how to learn. My approach is therefore practical, personalised and focused on equipping learners with skills they can use independently - not simply helping them get through their next test.
Whether we are working on study skills, academic goals, career decisions or navigating school challenges, I aim to create a supportive environment where students feel heard, encouraged and empowered.
My goal is simple: to help young people become confident, capable and independent learners - because when students understand their minds, they can begin to believe in themselves.

School can be challenging in ways that have nothing to do with academics. These personalised sessions help young people develop practical strategies for navigating friendships, peer pressure, conflict, bullying and other everyday social challenges at school.
Sessions provide a supportive, non-judgemental space where learners can talk through challenges and develop practical ways of responding to difficult situations. We work on confidence, resilience, communication, problem-solving and navigating peer relationships.
The goal isn't to tell students what to do, but to help them develop the skills and confidence to handle social challenges more effectively themselves. Sessions are aimed at learners aged 8–18 and are conducted in English, with online sessions available internationally.
