Throughout my career I have always worked with people in helping professions. I began my career as an advocate, working with young people in care, ensuring they were listened to, and their rights respected. 

I then moved into working in education and supporting teenagers at risk of being excluded. This work exposed me first hand to how poor mental health was having a huge impact on people’s lives. Wanting to do something to help, I trained as a mindfulness teacher and started my journey to train as an integrative counsellor. 

Years down the line, I’ve trained as a child and teen mindfulness teacher, trained in MBCT (Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy) and MBSR (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction). I’ve completed my Diploma in Counselling and specialised in working with trauma. I’ve completed further training in sound therapy, a variety of trauma approaches and creative counselling. 

As well as counselling, I host group and 1:1 sessions offering relaxation and self-care. Hosting these events and retreats is an important part of my work. I’m passionate about creating spaces where people can focus on their own wellness. 

I am fully insured and have a DBS check in place. I am a member of the BACP and follow their ethical guidelines, ensuring I work in a safe and professional manner.
