My background is in education, where I began my career teaching in further education before later specialising in supporting young people outside mainstream education to complete their GCSEs and A-levels.
During this time, I increasingly saw the impact anxiety, stress, and emotional wellbeing difficulties could have on confidence, communication, learning, and daily life. This led me to develop a deeper interest in therapeutic support and anxiety-informed approaches.

My initial interest in selective mutism led me to undertake specialist training with Maggie Johnson, which became the starting point for a wider exploration of anxiety, communication, and emotional wellbeing.
Since then, I have continued to develop my practice through training in mindfulness, hypnotherapy, and anxiety-informed therapeutic approaches, supporting both adults and children experiencing anxiety, stress, overwhelm, and life transitions.
More recently, I have added Duopody Reflexology to my practice, offering a gentle, calming approach that supports relaxation and nervous system regulation.
I have a particular interest in:
I approach therapeutic work calmly, thoughtfully, and with respect for each individual’s pace and experience.
My work is informed by ongoing professional development, personal insight into anxiety and selective mutism, and a strong interest in psychology, therapeutic practice, and the connection between emotional and physical wellbeing.
Sessions are offered with clear professional boundaries, ethical awareness, and a focus on creating an emotionally safe and supportive environment.
I hold an enhanced DBS certificate and work within clear professional boundaries, with a strong focus on emotional safety, safeguarding, and ethical practice.
