About Helen D’Silva

Helen D’Silva is the founder and director of HDPPG.

With more than 12 years’ experience working in the human resources and performance psychology domain in corporate and sport arenas, she can empathise with the challenges, stress and obstacles that business owners, directors and senior managers can experience on a regular basis.

Having worked with individuals and businesses in corporate settings Helen has acquired more than 10 years experience in sales (retail and professional consultation), and can therefore empathise with those experiencing stress that comes with needing to consistently perform at high levels, lead a successful team and be able to manage what feels like a ‘balanced’ and healthy lifestyle.

Exercising a warm, empathetic approach (with at least a little bit of humour), Helen will support, guide and empower you to develop strategies that suit and work for you.

Because Helen takes an educational approach, you will benefit in learning how to become the master of firstly understanding your obstacles to then be able to apply the strategies and technique for overcoming them.
