About me and my therapy practice

I help people undergoing life transitions through harnessing their creative genius inside. The relationship is at the heart of the work and I use counselling, coaching, energy work, mentoring and teaching to facilitate the process of discovering your true authentic self and mission.

My principal modalities are counselling (person-centred), life coaching and Usui Reiki Healing. My interests in energy work, shamanism, the divine feminine and Buddhism also inform my work. I am strongly guided by my intuition and energetic connection with you.

My 1:1 mentorships and stand alone sessions as well as group workshops and retreats all combine the possibilities of counselling, coaching, reiki healing and facilitating creativity.

I specialise in working with transitions, losses of various kinds, uncovering blocks and life-stage issues. These can manifest as depression and anxiety so I also work with these presenting conditions to dive deeper into what is going on for you.

I am a poet and teacher with 30 years experience of helping adults and young people access their creativity to become who they are, not who anyone, including themselves, expects them to be.

I prefer long term work of 3 months or more, and offer mentorship and commitment to a process. The investment and most appropriate payment plan for this would be discussed only at the initial (free) consultation. I also offer online group workshops and retreats.

Practice description

I use a form of coaching which feels pure, untainted by the desire to impose an interpretation or solution and I honour the creative genius in you.

Fundamentally, coaching is a relationship. Together, we co-create trust and intimacy between us which allows you to speak openly and truthfully about your experience. I bring my full presence which gently invites you into yours. I listen to what you are saying and not saying, using my intuition as a guide. I ask powerful questions which open doors of awareness. In the safe space we can both speak directly, allowing the veils of illusion and conditioning to gradually drop away. I may use creative exercises such as visualisation, writing, drawing and model making – our choice of these always arises from the unique process and content of the session.

One of my gifts which I offer you is the ability to encourage you into flow so that the session feels like a dance.

I will help you reach a new perspective on the issues you bring, and with this new awareness we create juicy actions for you to do between sessions which are designed to bring about your desired results.

I do not give advice, but may on occasion if it feels right share intuitive hunches to serve your processing.

As a qualified counsellor I bring the ability to support powerful authenticity and congruence – many women say it feels like they have had portals opened for them, and they have been freed from ‘the box’ of not-enough.

I am your guide and as such I am here to support you and challenge you to be your truest, fullest self, allowing you to go forward with courage, confidence and clarity.

It is my mission to work with women with unique roles to play, facilitating your potential, helping the wounds of patriarchy move through you allowing a you that is renewed and freshly inspired to take actions in alignment with your calling. Giving you the courage to take your place in the beautiful world you so deeply desire and create it with your very essence and being.
