Modern Minds is on a mission to bring world-class Psychology and Mental Health Studies workshops to as many students as possible.
By exploring Psychology and Mental Health Studies through an academic lens, we work with students to break down mental health stigma and improve their understanding of psychology and mental illness.

Testimonials
Joseph is passionate about the work he does, which is to develop an outreach program for adolescents about their mental health. The workshop was engaging and thought provoking. I would recommend his services wholeheartedly.
Patricia Maragos BSc,
BEd Science Coordinator
We loved working with Joseph on his Short Course in Psychology and Mental Health. His presentations were beautifully delivered and extremely well researched. I would have no hesitation in inviting him back. He is driven by a desire to engage sensitively with some of the key issues of our age and his level of knowledge, passion and care are never in doubt.
Sarah Fletcher MA (Oxon), High Mistress
The kids very much enjoyed and found useful what Joseph had to say, and appreciated the academic referencing: it all felt serious and correct, but not an adult's finger-wagging.

Head of Year 12
