Healthy Little Minds
About Me

Hi, I’m Godswill Ambrose — clinician–researcher and the heart behind Healthy Little Minds.

I’m a children’s mental health educator and MA candidate in Clinical Psychology, specializing in early support for emotional and behavioral challenges. I create engaging, research-informed stories, worksheets, and school programs that help children express their feelings, build resilience, and make healthy choices. My work connects the clinic, classroom, and home—grounded in evidence-based methods, standardized assessment, and simple, supportive language that families can easily understand.

How I Work Best

My work style blends big-picture vision with careful attention to detail. As a clinical psychology master’s student, I apply my training in emotional and behavioral science to develop school-based programs and create children’s stories that promote emotional well-being. I combine evidence-based knowledge with creativity, structure, and empathy. This profile reflects the qualities I rely on most when designing effective, engaging, and emotionally safe experiences for children and families.
