I would describe myself as a thinker, and a lover of life and studying!
When I am not working with clients in private practice, producing workshops or delivering ceremonies, you can find me on long beach walks with my dog's, or simply enjoying a nice cup of tea, reading a book.
My love of exploring takes me to beautiful places, such as, castles and country locations, where you will find me soaking up the history and detail of fabulous places.
I am a Psychotherapist and Therapeutic Counsellor. I help adults, young people and children with a wide range of issues.
The foundations of my training are to work within a person centred / humanistic modality, which means the relationship between the client and the therapist is always about you.
However, through my extensive training, I use a range of therapeutic modalities within my private practice. I continually update my knowledge and skills, to ensure I am demonstrating my commitment to my professional development.
I am a leading ADHD/ASD Specialist. I strive to keep up to date with the latest research findings, especially surrounding my personal and professional dedication towards ADHD/ADD and Autism, including training and research studies at Kings College London, which is a major research university, and ranked 30th in the Best Global Universities.

which provides strategic solutions for counsellor's and psychologist's to build and grow a successful private practice.
I am a Funeral Celebrant. I help families to prepare to say goodbye to their loved one. I create and deliver funerals which are a celebration of a persons life.
