Hi, I’m Jane.
I’m glad you’re here.
Founder of Empower Young Minds, paediatric nurse, wellbeing coach and parent.
“Every young person deserves the opportunity to understand themselves and grow in confidence.”
Understanding
makes room
for growth.
WHY I CREATED EMPOWER YOUNG MINDS
For over 20 years, I’ve supported children and families across hospitals, schools and community settings.
Again and again, I met young people trying to make sense of themselves: why they worried, why friendships felt difficult, or why feelings could suddenly take over. Parents often had those same questions.
I created Empower Young Minds to offer space for that understanding, alongside practical skills for everyday life.
We start with strengths, listen to what matters and take manageable steps. The six foundations give the work direction, while each person’s needs shape their journey.
Curious about the person.
Practical about support.

Understanding the joys.
And the challenges.
A PARENT’S PERSPECTIVE
Being a parent gives me an appreciation of both the joys and the challenges of helping young people grow. My hope is that the understanding and skills we build together can travel with them into everyday life.
Empower Young Minds is a coaching service focused on self-understanding, confidence and practical wellbeing skills. It is not a mental health service and does not provide counselling, psychotherapy, diagnosis or treatment for mental health conditions.
Coaching does not replace professional mental health care and is not a crisis service. An initial conversation helps us consider whether coaching is the right fit; some needs may be better supported by a GP or an appropriate mental health professional.
Wellbeing coaching.
Practical skills for life.
UNDERSTANDING THE SUPPORT
LET’S START WITH A CONVERSATION
Finding the right support
starts with being heard.
