about reb
Hello, I’m Rebecca.
I’m a hockey/sports coach and a mental health advocate. I began sharing my story back in 2015. With a love of story telling and creative arts, I filmed a short documentary “I am Rebecca,” which I used to start conversations in local schools and organisations around mental health. I share my story to offer hope and spread understanding, and specifically to provide young people with the confidence to reach out for help. We all deserve to feel known, seen, heard and understood. Now with an MSc in Physical Activity and Mental Health, I hope to use my knowledge and experience to change lives.
“Diagnosis: Her symptoms are consistent with Adult Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder. This is of predominantly Inattentive type and is of high severity.”
I hope my honesty will allow others to feel safer and give them permission to ask for help. We are all navigating our way through our own paths, going through things nobody sees and holding onto trauma invisible to the eye. We shouldn’t filter how we feel, power through or sacrifice our health, we should go against the grain and prioritise ourselves. I hope you can join me and my team as I learn, grow and steer my way through life.
Rebecca.
