Her practice provides a safe, welcoming space created on a foundation of honesty, trust and respect from which clients are encouraged and supported to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences at their own pace, without fear of judgement.

Alongside her private practice, she volunteers as welfare support at festivals and events throughout the UK, offering support on mental health, wellbeing, sexual health, and issues related to drugs and alcohol.
