What I do

I am an educator, facilitator and coach with a unique skill-set, drawing on a wide variety of methods and approaches in my work including contemporary Mindfulness and compassion training, modern psychology, Non-Violent Communication, Internal Family Systems, holistic movement and creative practice. 

Perhaps the central theme that flows through all my work could be summarised as follows:


Applying mindful awareness to cultivate connection (to self, to others and beyond) and to understand and meet real human needs.


The ways in which I support people are many and varied and (like people) don’t easily fit into nice, neat categories. Probably the best way to provide a flavour of what is possible is to share a few client stories.

In a non-judgemental, compassionate and responsive atmosphere I support others to develop the following awareness, knowledge, tools and skills:
