Team

Founded by teachers. Guided by psychologists. Built for students. 

Rupert and Phil founded Counsel Clouds after years of working in education and realising that many students cannot recognise, name, or articulate how they feel.


Without this skill set, accessing the support they need can be hard. 


Counsel Clouds exists to close that skill gap, offering schools structured, accessible tools that help students understand their emotions and build healthier habits.
