Hi, I'm Sara.

At 17, I went through a difficult year with my own mental health. More than a decade later, I turned that experience into Mindnosis, a self-assessment kit built to help people understand what they're going through and where to find support, without the trauma, friction and stigma that usually come with asking for help.

Mindnosis started as my MA final project at Central Saint Martins in 2016. It won a Creative Conscience Award and was featured by Dezeen. That recognition led to years of research and creative facilitation work with organisations including Mind in Camden, NSUN, and NHS trusts across London, all exploring how design can support recovery, participation and communication.

I've kept exploring the relationship between design, mental health and wellbeing. I'm trained in Mental Health First Aid and Counselling Skills, and I take the responsibility of this work seriously. Alongside my passion, I have a separate career in UX, service design and research.
