I spent my formative years between Europe and the Far East. With generations of my family having served in the armed forces, I became attuned to navigating diverse cultures and environments through immersion, observation and adaption. It was a particular kind of upbringing - challenging in some ways yet very expansive in others.

This trajectory continued as I later embarked upon a twenty-year career in marketing and advertising, during which I lived in London, New York, Amsterdam, Sydney. Working for some of the world’s most prominent and creative global brands. I was outwardly successful and composed supported by deep relationships, yet often felt overwhelmed, anxious and alone, longing for a deeper sense of purpose and answers to my past.

I knew fear early on and learned how to disassociate from it. Familial love was present but it was complicated, which is not unusual.. As I grew my longing to feel safety and belonging would distort my sense of self. I developed mechanisms of control, judgement, people- pleasing and perfectionism. Suppressed anger would surface like a tidal wave when I felt threatened or sensed injustice, followed by shame that would pull me into silence and solitude. My mind created narratives of unworthiness, which led to poor relationship choices, that confirmed and compounded them. Later my physical body spoke by revolting against me - imploring me to pay attention - to change And, finally I did.

A deep commitment to personal study in mind-body health led me to yoga training programs in India and The Bahamas, where I qualified as a certified Hatha yoga teacher. This marked the beginning of my personal transformation, but I knew there was still more to uncover. That experience opened the door to further exploration into meditation, nutrition, breathwork, and energy practices. I was later initiated into the Reiki lineage as a master practitioner adjacent to my ongoing career in advertising.

Qualifying as a hypnotherapist resulted in an immediate convergence and tipping point. I left my career. I left a lot in my life, and finally my work became my purpose. My therapeutic practice and perspective today is informed by this personal and professional experience, particularly in the realm of trauma.

I launched my practice online in Australia and Mallorca and, based on demand, I have returned to London offering online appointments via Zoom for global clients and in-person.
