My previous career managing individuals and teams has given me invaluable experience in supporting people achieve their goals.
Having built a successful career in both manufacturing and office environments, I understand first-hand the pressures that come from wanting to perform at your best, whilst maintaining a healthy life balance and nurturing, meaningful relationships. 
​
Over the past 15 years, I have trained extensively to change my career - as well as four years of Transactional Analysis Counselling & Psychotherapy training I have developed skills in Neuro Linguistic Programming and Life Coaching.  I also bring substantial counselling experience volunteering for mental health charities.
​
Being adopted at birth, I have a particular interest in how early childhood experiences and developmental trauma can shape us later in life.
​
Outside of my professional life, I love animals, have a passion for mindfulness in nature, and enjoy learning anything that deepens my understanding of people and the world around me.
