My Story
Like many people, I had a difficult start in life, which caused me to have challenges with relationships, low-confidence and anxiety.
I kept repeating the same unhelpful patterns of behaviour because I was living a life dictated by limiting beliefs, picked up many years before in my childhood.
But I always sensed there was more to life. Something was driving me towards a happier experience.
I was in my twenties, a single parent, (with a gorgeous son) but with no real prospects for a career, when I decided to take a night class in psychology. The teacher said to me:
'You know you are really good at this.
Have you ever thought about taking a degree?'
That lady literally changed my life - with that one comment - in that one single moment in time.
It was the beginning of my journey to becoming a therapist....
...and 27 years later I managed to track her down and thank her - it was the best feeling!
I completed my degree at one of the best universities in the UK, the University of Sussex - and in time I took several post-graduate qualifications. I also gained a great deal of experience helping people through various voluntary jobs in charities and organisations.
I’ve been in private practice now for many years, and I LOVE what I do! It gives me so much pleasure to help people become unstuck from the limiting ideas and self-beliefs that have been holding them back.
