Mental wellbeing coaching to support
students across the UAE
Bright Fox provides structured, skills-based coaching for students aged 11–25 – helping those who are capable but struggling to cope emotionally, socially, or academically.
We work alongside schools to offer time-limited support that sits between pastoral care and therapy.
