Evidence-based insight that connects data to lived experience - helping organisations understand risk earlier and act responsibly.
Evidence-based insight that connects data to lived experience - helping organisations understand risk earlier and act responsibly.
We start by giving organisations a clear, evidence-based view of mental health and psychosocial risk – not just how people feel, but where pressure is building and why. From there, we support earlier, more informed action that puts humanity back at the centre of how work and learning are designed.
OTII takes its name from the Latin ōtiī – time free from unrelenting demand. In ancient Rome, it was a privilege. Today, it’s often what’s missing.
It’s easy to see the appeal of stress management schemes and mindfulness apps. They offer simple fixes to complex problems – but they don’t address why pressure builds in the first place.
OTII helps organisations understand psychosocial risk and design healthier systems of work and learning – meeting their duty of care through prevention rather than reaction.
Listening with data is just the starting point. OTII works alongside you as a long-term mental health partner, combining evidence-based insight with lived experience to help address the challenges people face in real working and learning environments.
We know busy teams don’t need cold, clinical tools. Our engagements are intentionally concise and human-centred, designed to encourage honest participation rather than fatigue. They’re co-created with an award-winning illustrator, and every engagement includes a social impact contribution aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals – because prevention should do good beyond the organisation too.
Academic success isn’t a meaningful benchmark of potential if it comes at the expense of a child’s well-being. And increasingly, it’s clear that student well-being cannot be separated from the mental health literacy of the adults around them – educators at school and parents at home.
OTII’s proactive approach supports schools by strengthening the whole ecosystem. Alongside helping young people build emotional awareness and reducing stigma early, we measure mental health literacy in adults – because informed, confident adults are better placed to notice risk, respond early, and support children well.
Every school is different, shaped by its people and context. OTII offers flexible, evidence-based solutions that give leadership teams a clear, term-by-term view of well-being in students, alongside mental health literacy insights for staff and parents – helping schools spot pressure early and act responsibly.
It really does take a village. OTII works alongside educators, psychologists, counsellors, and clinicians to support a whole-school approach to mental health – providing structured insight for students from Grade 3 upwards, mental health literacy insight for parents, and appropriate support pathways for staff.
Organisations that take an evidence-based approach to workplace mental health focus less on surface symptoms and more on root causes – understanding where pressure is building, why it persists, and how work design, leadership, and culture contribute to risk.
OTII’s assessments are developed by mental health and well-being specialists with experience in complex environments, including the United Nations and the International Committee of the Red Cross. Rather than relying on generic engagement scores, we help organisations identify the underlying drivers of poor well-being and psychosocial risk.
These include factors such as workload and role clarity, workplace conflict, bullying, job insecurity, and sustained imbalance between effort and recovery. We also account for significant life and career transitions, including parental mental health and menopause – areas where our research and workplace insight are well established..
OTII® for ONE exists in the space many people recognise but struggle to name: between doing nothing and formal therapy. When something feels heavy, persistent, or quietly unsettling – but not necessarily clinical.
It’s a confidential, bespoke space for people who carry responsibility, expectation, or emotional load – often without an outlet. There’s no programme, no framework, and no requirement to turn up with a goal. Just time to talk, reflect, or sit with what’s there.
Whether you’re navigating leadership, life transitions, or the steady accumulation of stress that comes with being relied upon, this space is here without judgement or performance.
You can come once, or return when it feels right. This is not about treatment or fixing, it’s about having somewhere to place things before they become something else.
OTII® for ONE is facilitated by our founder, Martin Coul. His work is shaped by lived experience, including the loss of a parent to serious mental illness and his own experiences of depression and PTSD, alongside years working in mental health and well-being. He offers calm presence and deep listening – without diagnosis, analysis, or agenda.
This isn’t for everyone, but you will know if it is.
If that feels true, you’re welcome to reach out to Martin directly for a confidential conversation.
Well-being is no longer just a moral or fiduciary consideration. When approached thoughtfully and early, it becomes a strategic asset – supporting retention, performance, and long-term sustainability. OTII offers flexible pricing, from clearly scoped project work to simple annual per-person models, with transparency built in from the start.
Trust matters. All insights generated through OTII are anonymous, encrypted, and handled with care, using secure, globally recognised cloud infrastructure. Our work is grounded in evidence, responsibility, and respect for the people behind the data.
As part of our wider commitment, OTII aligns its social impact with United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 3: Good Health and Well-Being – because prevention and care should extend beyond any single organisation.
