I am excited to be a part of your journey towards finding a therapeutic solution to help you progress in life. Thank you for taking the time to learn more and begin this inspiring adventure.
​
As individuals, we all embark on a unique journey of self-discovery. Along the way, we encounter many challenges, and sometimes we need help and guidance. As a therapist and healer, I am here to share the knowledge and techniques I have learned throughout my career as a Shiva Shakti Energy Healer and Mental Health Occupational Therapist. By utilising the core principles of occupational therapy, I aim to help you live your best life by focusing on independence, well-being, and your environment. Together, we can create a customised solution tailored to your specific needs and help you achieve your goals.
Nestled in the serene Ribble Valley, I am grateful for every opportunity to connect with Mother Nature. I immerse myself in the healing energy she offers, and I explore her vast resources through walks, meditation, gardening, and wild camping. By raising my vibration and deepening my connection with the universal energy, I am empowered to provide more effective therapy.
​
Through a chance encounter with a friend in 2000, I was introduced to the power of Reiki techniques for the first time. It wasn't until 2010, however, that I truly began my journey towards becoming a healer. In a cafe on the banks of the mighty Ganges River in India, I met my spiritual teacher, Baba Jay, who attuned me to the Shiva Shakti energies. Since then, I have dedicated myself to developing my yogic practice and deepening my Druidic knowledge, always seeking to enhance my connection with nature and its healing energies. Today, I am proud to say that these experiences have formed the basis of my healing ethos, and I am grateful for the opportunity to share my gifts with the world.
​
Having qualified as an occupational therapist, I have always focused on working within the mental health field. This passion stems from my experience supporting a childhood friend with their own mental health struggles. Today, as an independent practitioner, I am proud to integrate my knowledge of natural healing techniques with my clinical expertise to create a unique, holistic and natural therapeutic program. My extensive experience in mental health settings has taught me the value of compassion, understanding, and dedication to helping others overcome their mental health challenges.
