About Me

Mindfulness Supervision Experience

I have been supervising and mentoring trainees and experienced teachers of mindfulness based approaches since 2016 via The Mindfulness Network and now via BAMBA. I enjoy supporting other mindfulness teachers working in any setting but particularly the many challenges of teaching in a health or social care setting. I am currently teaching mindfulness and self-compassion in the NHS with people living with chronic pain. I am always interested in exploring how our personal practice and how resourced we are impacts our teaching.

Mindfulness Teaching Experience

In 2005 I started teaching MBSR to people affected by breast cancer, healthcare professionals and  general public. As a certified Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) teacher since 2016, I teach in person and online for the Center for MSC and also as a certified Self-Compassion for Shame (SC-Shame) teacher. I lead  8-week and also  intensive MSC trainings and SC-Shame courses. I lead silent retreats, teach individuals and lead regular MSC and SC-Shame practice groups. I am a supervisor, MSC teacher and retreat leader with BAMBA and the Mindfulness Network. I also teach MSC to people living with chronic pain via the NHS in Dorset UK as well as lead mindfulness drop in groups for The Living Tree, a cancer support centre in Dorset UK.
