Born into an east-west intercultural, neurodivergent family I have lived and worked among many people and places internationally and truly understand the challenges of being or belonging in more than one neat box. I offer a depth of experience professionally from holding therapeutic, arts and educational roles with children, adults and organizations for over 30 years, including within the NHS.  In addition to my private practice I am a member of Wessex Counselling and Psychotherapy Training in Frome where I work as a seminar leader and tutor on both their pre-clinical and Clinical/Diploma trainings.

I regularly attend Supervision with a Senior Jungian Analyst and actively undertake post qualification training and studies (CPD) to ensure my practice is ethical, up to date and relevant.

Some of the CPD trainings I have undertaken include (but are not limited to) studies in: Neuropsychology, Couples therapy, Sexuality and Gender, Eating Disorders, Self-harm, Psychosis, Jungian Studies, Ethics, Diversity, Race & Identity, Active Imagination, Trauma, Group work, Dreams, Embodiment and Dysphoria. ​
