A Bit About Me

I am a fully qualified and accredited psychotherapist with 20 years of experience. I have an MA in Core Process Psychotherapy and in 2013 I undertook my Wild Therapy training, and I am now a facilitator of that course. I have a degree in Human Ecology (BSc hons) and have completed a shamanic training that greatly informs my work.

 

In my younger years  I lived in a tiny Himalayan village an hours walk from the nearest road, I learnt to live very basically, collecting water from the spring and firewood from the orchards. For a woman who grew up in a city environment this was a huge awakening. I began to move away from a colonised way of viewing our world and surroundings as other than me, and started to listen and pay attention to the mystery of our interrelatedness and entanglement. I danced with the trees, watched the mountains breath and began to have a sense of the invisible realms we are in constant motion with.

 

I now live and work in East Sussex and practice from my home in St Leonards-on-Sea. My therapy room is at the bottom of my wild garden, sitting within its ecology of trees, squirrels, wrens and crows, even the odd fox may pay a visit. I love to offer a very fluid and creative way of working that can be indoors in person, online or out with our fellow none human teachers and healers.

 

In my free time you will find me outside often barefoot on the earth, feeling the wind, listening to the rain and sitting with the wisdom of the trees. I do try and grow my own veg with varying degrees of success, and I love pottering in the garden with my dog.
