Ian Barratt is a qualified stress management consultant and coach and is widely regarded as the leading expert on stress and wellbeing in Kent. In addition, Ian specialises in helping clients overcome associated problems such as addictions, anger, self harm and depression.
Mind Strengths highly acclaimed 1-1 coaching sessions and workshops will help stress sufferers identify problem areas and understand where they can improve their wellbeing over time. This is achieved by using our unique personal assessments that develop into a comprehensive self help programme. Prices for a one hour session start from as little as £40.
