“It can be very difficult to see things how they really are when you are so engrossed in study. Rob knows this all too well. He was therefore able to offer me much needed wisdom and new perspectives to help me better understand myself and my academic experience. I feel much better now as a result, and am more prepared for when I decide to resume studying. Robs help has been invaluable, and I highly recommend him to anyone struggling with the rigours of academia.”

“Robert has given talks to our postgraduate students on the subject of mental health and academia. These talks have been exceptionally well received and what has been most appreciated is his candid, honest and personal exploration of the subject. This individual approach has been very useful in starting a conversation on a difficult and important subject.”

“PhD students endure unique struggles and difficulties throughout their journey. For myself, reaching out to Rob allowed me to articulate personal challenges and gain a different perspective on them. I’m sure anyone would benefit from speaking to Rob to gain insights that help navigate the demanding path through post-graduate research.”
