Co-Founder – Breathe Education & BREATHE Dental Wellness
From Corporate Leadership to Human Wellbeing
Hello, I’m Jackie Cooper. My journey has been shaped by a lifelong passion for helping people thrive — whether that’s individuals working through personal challenges or teams within businesses striving to perform at their best.
With over 30 years of experience in the international dental sector, I’ve combined my background in senior corporate leadership with specialist training in mental health and wellbeing. This unique blend allows me to work with organisations to build more resilient, engaged, and high-performing teams.
My career in healthcare began in a very personal way. Having once struggled with my own dental phobia, I trained as a dental nurse to overcome it — an experience that ignited a lasting commitment to improving the wellbeing of both patients and professionals. From there, I went on to hold senior international roles, most notably with Henry Schein, where I led clinical strategy, technical education, and training, as well as spearheading the Practice Green global sustainability initiative.
Pioneering Wellbeing in Dentistry & Beyond
In 2020, I co-founded BREATHE Dental Wellness, the first wellbeing platform dedicated to oral healthcare professionals, which now delivers NHS-backed resilience programmes. I also launched CooperTransformations to offer tailored therapy, coaching, and leadership support, and later co-founded Breathe Education, extending this mission into wider business sectors.
At the heart of all these initiatives is the same goal: helping people feel stronger, more resilient, and better equipped to manage life’s challenges.
Cognitive Hypnotherapy & NLP Mastery
As a qualified Cognitive Hypnotherapist and NLP Master Practitioner, I work with clients to help them break free from limiting patterns, reduce stress, and rebuild confidence. For some, this means one-to-one therapy sessions; for others, it might be coaching, mentoring, or tailored workshops for their teams.
Using evidence-based techniques, I focus on practical tools that can make a real difference — whether that’s improving communication, supporting recovery, or boosting performance.
Speaker, Educator & Advocate for Mental Health
Alongside my client work, I am also a renowned international speaker on mental health and wellbeing. I have delivered keynote talks and workshops for the Association for Dental Education in Europe (ADEE), their global WELLdental programme, and many other conferences, universities, and industry events across the UK, Europe, and the Middle East.
I regularly speak on topics such as stress management, resilience, and women’s mental health in healthcare, bringing both professional insight and lived experience to my talks.
Your Partner in Lasting Change
What makes my work unique is the balance of commercial acumen, clinical understanding, and therapeutic expertise I bring to each client relationship.
Whether you’re an individual seeking personal support, a healthcare professional facing pressure, or a business leader wanting to strengthen your team’s wellbeing and performance — I will work alongside you to find practical, compassionate, and evidence-based ways forward.
Because real change isn’t just possible — it’s lasting when it’s done together.
