Feel like yourself again.
I help adults understand themselves and trust their own voice, so they can make braver choices, and help the next generation to do the same.
Positive psychology and mental wellbeing education for parents, educators and schools, in Waterford and online.
And at the heart of it all:
your voice matters.
WELCOME TO YOUR VOICE RISING
ABOUT YOURVOICERISING
PURPOSE
Your Voice Rising helps adults to flourish through positive psychology, mental health education and creative practices. I believe adult wellbeing is the most powerful way to protect children's mental health.
MISSION
Whether you're a parent, a teacher, someone who works with children, or simply looking for more calm and confidence, you're welcome here.
I work with schools through student workshops, staff wellbeing sessions and parent mornings. I also work with adults who want to worry less and trust themselves more, through workshops and small group programmes.
TARA KENNEDY
Hi, I'm Tara,
Creator of Your Voice Rising and Sing for Joy. I'm a Positive Psychology & Mental Wellbeing Educator, a qualified secondary school teacher, a mother and a singer.
I'm deeply passionate about helping adults find calm, confidence and emotional balance. I believe the most powerful way to protect children's mental health is to make sure the adults around them are emotionally healthy, supported and connected.
I spent six years teaching Music and Wellbeing in secondary schools. I hold a Professional Master of Education (PME) and a Certificate in Positive Psychology Interventions, and I'm currently completing a MSc in Mental Health Practices for Children and Young Adults. I blend evidence-based tools with practical, creative experiences to create sessions that are warm, safe and empowering.
I believe wholeheartedly in community and in feeling like you belong somewhere, something many of us have lost in recent years. People often tell me I have a way of bringing out the best in others.
You're really welcome here.
