About me

In 2007, after a series of personal traumas and multiple sports injuries I found it difficult to walk. This painful period of time was the catalyst for an intensive period of learning and self-reflection. I wanted to live more peacefully and compassionately with myself and others. It ultimately involved an ongoing synthesis of Western and Eastern traditions.

I trained as a Psychotherapist/Counsellor to gain a greater understanding of psychological, emotional and behavioural states. Alongside this I trained as a Hatha Yoga Teacher and practised Buddhist meditation. These Eastern experiential practices offered a space to pause, listen and learn in an embodied way about the interplay of mind, body and breath. West and East encouraged the adoption of specific techniques.  I found that when they were integrated and used they could be helpful in restoring feelings of wellbeing.
