What our Parent/Carers and Young People say about our service

The Wirral Mental Health Support Team (MHST) have received the following feedback from parents and carers:

  • "Jess is amazing in riding the rapids! Very relatable/informative sessions with time to talk to other parents."
  • "Sinead and Leanne were really friendly, un judgemental and understanding. I felt they really did support me in anything I asked about or needed help with."
  • "Liane and Sinead were 1st class, nice to see people passionate about helping people."
  • "Jess and Sinead were great facilitators and listened to us. The group was structured but we could share our experiences in the group. Lots of points resonated with us and we are working on using the tools at home which has been well received by our daughter and us, thank you!"

I attended the Timid to Tiger sessions with Liane and Sinead. The group was informative, and it was evident that both Liane and Sinead were knowledgeable and very approachable. They were always happy to answer questions and validated how I was feeling on several occasions. I gained a wealth of knowledge, and I learned a great deal from other parents, who were equally kind and supportive. This experience has also prompted my husband to change his mind set and approach, which has helped massively. I would recommend this course to anyone; my confidence is much higher now, and we are all much happier as a result.

  • "Hannah was so friendly, welcoming and patient and really took her time with my child opening up. Can’t thank her enough."
  • "Andrea and Nicole were amazing they have given us the confidence as parents to support our daughter the strategies have helped my child so much, she is much more confident and regulated really happy."

I’m really happy with Marzena and Donna as facilitators. They’re easy to work with, listen and have a kind approach to the sessions. I feel very comfortable with them both!

Donna’s support has been really helpful. I’ve seen a huge improvement in my child’s behaviour and coping skills since they’ve been seeing her. They are also really pleased with the progress they have made. This has been positive for us all as a family.
Parent/Carer

I really appreciated how Donna took the time to check in with me and made sure I wasn’t left out while I was in hospital for a while. Updating me weekly after my son’s appointments. It made a difficult situation feel more manageable. Having someone who communicates clearly and shows genuine care makes a big difference.

Loved this course, it’s made a difference to my daughter starting back at school where she would have found it more daunting otherwise.

I would definitely recommend timid to tiger to others who are suffering to help their child with their anxiety. It has been a lovely few weeks and I have learnt a lot of new and different ways to help out my child when he is anxious.

Excellent to have time to share experiences with other parents. Loved working through strategies on riding the rapids. Not a magic wand but such helpful tools.
