Qualifications & Professional Background

I believe it’s important to be clear about my training, experience, and scope of practice, so you can decide whether this way of working feels right for you.

Scope & Approach

My work is not medical treatment and does not involve diagnosis or prescription. Instead, it focuses on supporting awareness, regulation, insight, and meaningful change across emotional, physical, and behavioural dimensions.

I work collaboratively and respectfully, and where appropriate, I support clients to work alongside other healthcare professionals for medical or specialised care.
