Workshops & Professional Development

Would you like to motivate and excite your team, staff or interested group of individuals?

Would you like to run a targeted session to facilitate a specific part of your action plan such as collecting data to set goals and targets, creating an understanding of mental health, identifying gaps in support pathways and education (to name a few)?

Would you like to get some outside help to facilitate and implement mental health or behaviour improvement in your school OR mental health improvement across your local area?

I Can Help You Achieve all of this!

Hey, I’m Renee Knapp!

I am an independant consultant and educator and am a passionate advocate for implementing community and cross sector approaches to mental health. I also specialise in implementing effective behavioural strategies and mental health & wellbeing approaches in schools and communities.

I have extensive experience in delivering motivating and productive workshops. I have presented at numerous conferences across Australia and can target workshops to meet your localised needs and setting. I can work school admin teams, whole staff groups or individuals to determine the best approach to take in order to ensure maximum buy in from staff, students, parents and community members.

When Running a Workshop I Will:
