​​​​​​​​​​My journey into health and wellbeing began in 1991 as a chiropodist. Back then, foot and leg massage was part of the treatment protocols I offered to mostly elderly and housebound patients. It was here that the inspiration to later retrain in massage therapy emerged.

​

During this time, I also began to develop my spiritual nature and an awareness of the potency of energy healing through a two-year training with the late Suzanne McInnerney at the College of Psychic Studies in London (1993–1995). The spiritual and metaphysical teachings of this remarkable mentor sit at the root of my work.

​

In the years that followed, I undertook a six-year apprenticeship in New Mexico under the guidance of a Native American medicine elder. It was during this time (1995–2001) that I learnt the importance of ceremony, how to ‘hold space,’ and how to connect deeply with the Earth as both planet and consciousness.

​

I witnessed and experienced the healing power of ritual, medicine circles, frame drumming, and sacred voice work. These practices awakened my own ancestral memories and genetic codes, showing me how to guide others to connect with their own soul sound, inner rhythm, and ancestral voice.

​

Back in the UK, this work led me to create women’s community circles and to teach within Suffolk schools and community programmes, sharing sacred voice, sound healing, and Earth-based spiritual practices.

​

In 2005, I gained my VTCT qualification in Swedish massage at Suffolk New College, later adding pregnancy massage, hot stone therapy, myofascial release, and advanced deep tissue techniques to my practice.

 

Sound healing became naturally woven into client sessions, including the use of tuning forks. After meeting master sound healer and world musician Tim Wheater in 2006, I was inspired to explore the power of the gong, and offer one-to-one and group sound bath immersions here in the Temple Room, at community venues, and increasingly within corporate wellbeing settings.

​

In 2012, I began volunteering at The Lighthouse Women’s Centre in Suffolk, supporting women and families recovering from domestic abuse. It is well documented that trauma can remain trapped in the body, manifesting as painful memories and self-sabotaging patterns. This deepened my interest in somatic healing approaches, and I developed a unique programme for the Lighthouse community incorporating meditation, healing voice, and frame drumming.

​​

My understanding of trauma and the nervous system has since deepened, and I now offer IEMT (Integral Eye Movement Therapy) as a powerful modality to help individuals gently release painful memories and sabotaging beliefs. This complements my training in Nervous System Regulation through the Institute of Applied Somatics, where I learnt how to support clients in restoring balance and resilience in the body.

​​

In Autumn 2025, I plan to offer online nervous system support sessions for women who cannot attend in person. I also hold certification through Burrell Education to support women in their perimenopausal and postmenopausal years, offering in-person consultations, online coaching, and through community menopause meet-ups.

​

In 2023, I relocated to the Isle of Sheppey in Kent and opened The Temple Room ~ a dedicated home-based sanctuary where I now work with women both in person and online. I have also begun writing and publishing poetry and embodiment workbooks to support the sacred feminine journey of healing, awakening, and thriving.

​

I am proud to support Kent-based charities SATEDA and The Harmony Therapy Trust, offering low-cost sessions for women recovering from domestic abuse or living with chronic illness and life-altering diagnoses.

​

I remain committed to lifelong learning, soul growth, and professional integrity.
My integrated approach to healing over the past 30 years has taught me this fundamental truth :

The body is the most remarkable intelligence we can ever know ~ it is not only the sacred living temple we inhabit from birth to death, but also the gateway into a thriving, soul-aligned life. It is to this dynamic energy of Life that I devote my work.
