About the Teacher
Why study with them?
I was born in the UK in the 1970’s and have travelled far and wide internally and externally. Inspired by transformational experiences in my university years, I began training in therapies and coaching in 2001 and haven’t stopped since.
In 2011 I moved to a tiny island in the Mediterranean and my hands-on therapeutic practice became a wild success. I took a 4 month sabbatical to set up an holistic ski chalet in France in 2013 with my partner at the time, returning to Malta in 2014 (via a month-long meander thru Italy)
When the pandemic arrived in 2020 I focused on teaching what I knew about bodies online and in 2023 I began the big move back to the UK.
My style is practical, compassionate and deep. I am fully committed to supporting you to find your way.
My work is always embodied and carefully held.
I was a speaker at The Embodiment Conference in 2020 alongside Gabor Mate, Peter Levine, Alanis Morissette, Bessel Van Der Kolk and many other great teachers of our time.
I have been running my therapeutic business since 2003 years and retreats since 2014.
In that time I have seen thousands of people. Each session, course, retreat serves to strengthens my practice so I am always learning.
I qualified in Amanae (a powerful form of transformational bodywork) under the Amanae Europe school in 2017 after completing the intense three year training programme.
I acquired a distinction in the Holistic Massage (ITEC) diploma in 2011, a Diploma in Reflexology in 2003 (Philip Salmon School) and Level 1 and 2 Reiki (Mari Hall) in 2001 and level 3 in 2010.
I hold a Bachelor of Sciences Degree in Health and Community Services and have taken short courses in advanced reflexology, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Neuro Linguistic Programming, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), energy work practices, aromatherapy, flower remedies and bodywork techniques.
I have practiced yoga and meditation regularly since 2010 and intermittently before that.
I use embodiment coaching, meditation, movement, journalling, therapeutic touch, breathwork, sound, amanae, energywork, compassion and humour to support the process of your return to wholeness.
