Sheila Fauman gets mental health and wellness. As SafeCare BC's workplace psychological health and safety coach, she recognizes the deep impact mental health and wellness can have on everyone. She believes there is so much opportunity to more effectively respond to and support the mental health of frontline workers and leaders in our sector. That 'coach' word in her title means she's ready (and excited) to share her knowledge and experience. Think of her as a psychological health and safety mentor for your organization.
Sheila's passion for and interest in mental health and wellness comes from both personal and professional experiences. She holds a Master's Degree in Counselling Psychology and has over 15 years working in both the healthcare and justice system sectors (talk about high reward, high stress sectors). Her experiences have included many years working directly with service users as a probation officer and corrections programs therapist, as well as in violence prevention in the workplace, psychological health and safety, and program research and development.
