My way of working integrates Mindfulness based approaches (MBCT and MBSR) and the humanistic approaches of Gestalt Psychotherapy, Psychosynthesis and FIRO Theory.

I offer 1-Day and 8-Week Mindfulness Courses to organisations and the general public in Sussex and Surrey.

For the last 2 ½ years I have been running weekly mindfulness groups within a private mental health hospital in Central London and a drop-in group within a local GP surgery in Crawley Down, Sussex.  I also work in collaboration with other Mind/Body practitioners, offering creative and integrative approaches to health and well-being.

I am a registered Mindfulness trainer with The Mental Health Foundation and my courses are listed on the www.bemindful.co.uk website, dedicated to Mindfulness training for mental health and well-being.

I trained to run the 8-Week Mindfulness Course with Cindy Cooper in London and with

The Centre for Mindfulness Research and Practice at The University of Bangor. I have monthly one to one and peer supervision to support my mindfulness work.

As a mindfulness facilitator, I adhere to the Good Practice Guidelines of the UK Network of Mindfulness-based Teachers.   http://mindfulnessteachersuk.org.uk/pdf/teacher-guidelines.pdf

As a BACP Accreditated Counselor/Psychotherapist, I adhere to the BACP Ethical Framework:  http://www.bacp.co.uk/admin/structure/files/pdf/566_ethical_framework_feb2010.pdf

Prior to setting up my own private practice, I worked for 7 years within the field of organizational development consultancy, specializing in the psychology of relationships and emotional intelligence.
