​​In 2005 I gained my VTCT qualification in Swedish massage at Suffolk New College, later adding pre- and post-natal pregnancy massage, hot stone treatments, myofascial release, and advanced deep tissue & trigger point techniques into my client practice.  

​

Alongside massage therapy I also led for several years shamanic frame drumming circles for women, where rhythmic drumming and vocal toning brought groups and individuals into connection with their inner voice and tribal/genetic memories. These community circles offered a potent vehicle for fostering close communal connection, whilst awakening individuals to the multidimensionality of their body mind and soul. 

​

During this time, I witnessed the healing power that certain sound frequencies carry and studied and brought tuning fork therapy into my client work. After a powerful workshop meeting in 2006 with master sound healer and musician Tim Wheater, I was guided to explore the healing power of the Gong, which I now offer as one to one or small group sound bath immersions here in the Temple Room studio, or in local larger community spaces. 

​

In 2012 I began volunteering time and services into The Lighthouse Women’s Centre in Suffolk, where women and families were being supported in their recovery journeys' away from domestic abuse and violence. It is well documented that trauma can remain within us for years, trapped as painful memories feelings and sabotaging patterns of behavior, affecting all areas of life and so I began to explore body based somatic practices which could regulate the nervous system and further support the women I served.   

​

I created short courses where women could begin to slowly explore these themes with meditation, vocal toning, and sound. Gradually as my understanding and knowledge of the nervous system has deepened alongside how we interpret and process trauma, I have trained as an IEMT (Integral Eye Movement Therapy) Practitioner to further help individuals move on from painful experiences and to grow and meet their fullest potential. For women going through their menopausal years, I offer Peri2Post menopause guidance, coaching and support. 

​

My lifelong interest in astrology, has also now been developed as a Temple Room modality, offered as one to one natal chart consultations or as small group coaching sessions for businesses or groups for team leaders and staff who may wish to gain insight and understanding about workplace dynamics. 

​

 In 2024 I relocated the Temple Room to the Isle of Sheppey in Kent. Here, I offer a bespoke purpose-built studio space in which to work in person or online. I also travel and work within corporate settings and alongside the Kent based women's charity Sateda to ensure that The Temple Room holistic model of healthcare is available and accessible to those who want and need it the most. 

 

 My work is multifaceted and takes into appreciation the journeys and life themes that each person carries within, and I am committed to ongoing personal growth and professional development.
