In fact it was this curiosity that led me, over 25 years ago, into the Health and Wellness profession. During this time I have had the privilege of working in a wide variety of settings, including the Kalahari desert where I lived and worked with the Bush people. More traditionally, I have also worked with Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital, hospices for children and adults, GP surgeries, schools, care homes, shelters for the homeless and businesses. Over the years I have discovered and trained in many different therapeutic modalities which I have used to support people of all ages.
I understand not only the inter-relationship between our physical and emotional health but also the interplay between our personal wellbeing, our environments and communities.
Wherever I am and whatever therapeutic work I am doing, one of the things that I consistently witness is people's incredible ability to survive, change and thrive when they are given the right help and get their needs met.
For years I too struggled with my own challenges. These included dyslexia, an eating disorder and low self-esteem. By applying all that I have learnt in my therapeutic training and holistic work, I have thankfully been able to transform my health and my life.
The following quotes always inspired me on..
"Follow your bliss" - Joseph Campbell
"Be the change you want to see in the world" - Mahatma Gandhi
‘The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.’ Joseph Campbell
support and empower children and adults alike to find freedom from emotional pain and fear so they can get their needs met, feel well, be at peace and say ‘yes’ to who they are and all life offers.
All my work is imbued with creativity and stories as it is through our imagination that we find liberation.
