Excellent Catalyst for Personal Growth
Excellent Catalyst for Personal Growth
My passion is being an excellent catalyst for personal development and growth. My core values are encouragement, learning, compassion and collaboration. With over 40 years of experience in the currently called ‘wellbeing’ field, I am committed to you learning how to be in flow most of the time, making life easier to navigate.
Many presentations labelled as Mental Health issues are preventable. Whether you wish to engage in prevention or treatment, I will see and hear you where you are* and our time together will be encouraging, insightful, fun and productive!
*Psychologically, emotionally, spiritually not geographically!
Inperson appointments are offered for those who are local, I am based in Suffolk / Cambridge. Workshops, retreats, talks and more further afield work is feasible by arrangement, pop me a message.
In my spare time, I love wild swimming, connecting with family, living seasonally, walking with friends and growing things.
Because people are individual and tribal
I have chosen to be dual accredited (BACP & BABCP) because people are individual and tribal. Humans require connection to themselves and others. We learn, communicate, understand, and make sense of things through our own multifaceted lens. There is no one theoretical approach that fits us all!
The approaches I offer are robustly researched and evidenced, demonstrating their safe effectiveness for personal development that is embedded within us and life enhancing.
Another duality is working within private practice and the NHS (primary, secondary and crisis services). My private practice began in 1983 and my NHS role began in 2002.
In my private practice, I enable clients to develop psychological flexibility, emotional intelligence and a wide range of skills that can be applied to any area of their lives. Find out more about the presentations and conditions I work with.
My NHS role is providing short term therapeutic treatments for Complex & Multiple Trauma Presentations, Long Term Conditions, Clinical Supervision, and being the team’s Neurohuman Champion.
Working in the personal development field since 1983, I have an extensive depth and breadth of knowledge and experience.
As an ethical practitioner I am passionate about continuing my learning and development, which is supported through continual professional development (CPD) and a team of clinical supervisors.
I work with individuals, couples, families and groups offering styles and interventions that are accessible to clients and are effective.
