Lifestyle Expert

At OpenUp, we focus on prevention. We don’t diagnose; we provide guidance for life’s everyday challenges in the field of lifestyle.

We offer planned and on-demand video consults seven days a week, ensuring people can access support when they need it most - no long waits, no barriers. In each session (usually 25 minutes), you’ll help clients set clear, actionable goals and guide them toward meaningful first steps.

Our mission is to help people build skills and autonomy, so they feel confident to continue their journey independently. Many clients find they gain what they need in just a few focused conversations - thanks to your structured, goal-oriented support.

You’ll engage with a wide variety of people, from diverse cultural backgrounds and industries, and you’ll have opportunities to grow through weekly intervision sessions and ongoing development. We work together to make mental well-being accessible, practical, and empowering for everyone.
