Story
The Power of Early Intervention
Sarah sat quietly at the back of the classroom during our first Integrated Therapeutic Skills Programme session in Liverpool. Like many 16-year-olds, she was struggling with anxiety and feeling isolated. What happened next would change not just her story, but the stories of countless others.
"I never thought I could speak about my mental health. Be Free Campaign showed me that it's not just okay to talk—it's powerful." - Sarah, Programme Participant
A Journey of Transformation
Over the eight-week programme, we witnessed a remarkable transformation. Sarah not only found her voice but became a mental health champion in her school. Through CBT-based techniques and peer support, she developed tools that would serve her well beyond the classroom.
