Hi I’m Michelle, I am a Family Support Worker at PSL. I support clients in the Southampton area on a 121 basis, by phone, as a home visit or in person. I believe I have good listening skills and also have empathy to relate to our clients and their challenges they face on a day to day basis. I also facilitate the Southampton Support Group, the Bereavement Group and I also run Wellbeing sessions, held at the PSL offices. In our latest Wellbeing sessions, we have looked at making Mood boards, Communicating better to reduce anxiety, Self Esteem & Tai Chi to name a few. Clients enjoy these sessions and take a lot away with them to help them in their everyday life.
I enjoy practicing tai chi myself, and also attempt to keep fit(ish!) by going to “Mum dance” every week, which is a giggle. My husband and I have 4 children and 1 grandchild. I also have a tortoise called Shelby that I rehomed last year, which I enjoy looking after as it helps me relax, and watch her at a very slow, mindful pace!
