After finishing my Honours Degree in History, I moved to London and began training as a body therapist in 1991, studying aromatherapy, Swedish massage, and holistic massage. A year later, I started a full-time private practice in Surrey and Middlesex.

As my practice and experience developed, I became interested in different therapies and in 1997, I trained as a Craniosacral therapist. The following year, I started my Core Process psychotherapy MA which I completed in 2007. Currently, I have a private practise in Chesterfield and Sheffield offering Craniosacral Therapy, psychotherapy, Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP), and supervision.

I grew up with horses, as my family runs a very small stud farm. I began to learn to ride at the age of nine. When I moved to London, I lost all contact with horses. This resumed when I returned to Chesterfield in 2003 as my father had begun breeding Traditional Cobs. My passion for horses returned. I began riding again. I bought my first horse in 2007, who now works in the Two Ash Stables EAP programme with me. We have also officially graduated Parelli Natural Horsemanship Level 2 and have two Level 3s.

I became interested in EAP around 2005 due to a colleague recommending 'The Tao of Equus' by Linda Kohanov. Since 2007, I have been in the process of setting up the collaborative EAP service, Two Ash Stables. I am trained in the EAGALA model. Horses' energetic sensitivity, present moment awareness, natural being nature, and unconditional acceptance have been profoundly healing for me.
