What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role in Employee Wellness & Engagement where I can lead counselling and psychoeducation programs, collaborate across teams and locations, and grow impact through ethical, confidential casework, training facilitation, and data-informed reporting.

I’m a psychology professional transitioning from clinical psychology into Employee Wellness & Engagement, with 3+ years of experience designing and delivering well-being, counselling, and psychoeducation programs for 100+ individuals per quarter across multi-site settings. I focus on stress and burnout management, confidential case handling, and crisis support—always with ethical practice and discretion.

In my current role as Employee Wellness & Counselling Lead, I coordinate and facilitate workshops for staff and parents, partner with stakeholders across 5+ locations, and lead, mentor, and support a team of counsellors to maintain quality and professional development. I’ve also driven measurable engagement outcomes, including a 12% increase in programme engagement and contributed to a 10% expansion of the wellness team through 15+ successful demonstrations.

I bring a data-informed, psychology-backed approach to workplace well-being—developing mental health awareness content (digital and print), supporting return-to-work training, and maintaining structured documentation and reporting. I’m equally comfortable with training facilitation, onboarding support, and cross-functional collaboration to strengthen internal communications and long-term program impact.
