Elliot Omari

Health & Wellbeing Practitioner with special responsibility for Diabetes

My name is Elliot and I work at The Well Centre as a health and wellbeing practitioner, I’m a psychology graduate with a passion for helping young people. My job is to offer support and help to young people that are experiencing a range of issues, from psychological to emotional problems.

Using psychology and cooperative communication I aim to explore challenging topics and addresses any concern a young person may be dealing with. Through the use of holistic methods, I aim to facilitate a young person’s growth through their own decisions in improving their health and wellbeing.

I have a background in young people’s mental health and wellness, I worked as support staff in a PRU and spent some time as a HCA in a mental health facility. These experiences have had a large impact on me and how I approach mental health, it has shown me how many young people feel neglected and not taken seriously. I want to change this and demonstrate that if given appropriate
attention and adequate support a young person can achieve a great deal.
