    We help you make data-driven decisions for effective wellbeing programs.

    Wouldn’t you love to have a wellbeing profile for each of your students?

    We make that happen by recording all the data gathered from our strengths-finder and wellbeing survey into a reporting dashboard.

    This allows your school to access a full suite of insights, reports, graphs and trends on student strengths and wellbeing.

    Your reporting dashboard can track patterns and growth over time. This data can even be presented to parents and the school community.

    What is a Strengths-Based approach?

    Across Australia, school wellbeing frameworks and curriculums are increasingly being informed by a strengths-based approach. This positive psychology methodology recognises that all students have strengths and abilities that need to be nurtured. Teachers and school leaders are encouraged to help students discover knowledge and understanding about themselves.

    Dan Hardie,
    Teen Counsellor
    Founder, MyStrengths

    Students are so aware of their weaknesses, but how many know their strengths?

    In my work as a counsellor I often meet with youth who have long been defined by negative labels: ADHD, anxiety, depression and more.

    Sure they might get some strategies to deal with this, but rarely is there a long-lasting shift in self-esteem, confidence and self-love that so many need. This is heartbreaking.

    That is why I created MyStrengths. A framework for schools and parents to give teens positive understanding of themselves, allowing them to discover and become defined by their strengths.
