About Me

I trained as a mindfulness-based teacher through Bangor University in 2005/6 and have been teaching 8-week Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction / Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBSR/MBCT) courses to the general public in Kent since 2006 in group settings and to individuals face-to-face and as a distance learning course. I also provide introductions to mindfulness for people with long-term mental illness. In 2017 I completed the training in Mindfulness-Based Compassionate Living (MBCL) with Erik van den Brink and in MBCT-L (for life) and offer both courses in Kent and online.

I have been working as a Biodynamic Psychotherapist (UKCP reg.) since 2000, with individuals presenting with a wide range of difficulties and specialise in using one-to-one mindfulness informed approaches in clinical settings.

Since 2009 I have been engaged in supervising mindfulness teachers and offering mentoring for their mindfulness practice, both in English and German.

I have a special interest in expanding and deepening mindfulness practice beyond the 8-week course and so offer groups, practice days and retreats as on-going support and help in facing and working with life’s difficulties in greater awareness.
