About Me

My work is grounded in delivering Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) to individuals and groups seeking evidence-based approaches to enhance psychological well-being, emotional resilience, and cognitive clarity. With a background rooted in both clinical and organisational contexts, I facilitate programmes that blend scientific rigour with the transformative potential of contemplative practice.

I offer MBCT to adults across a range of settings, including mental health services, private practice, and corporate environments. In clinical contexts, I support individuals living with anxiety, depression, and chronic stress, helping them build sustainable tools for self-regulation and emotional balance. In professional and corporate settings, I work with senior leaders and high-performing teams, integrating mindfulness into the demands of complex decision-making, leadership, and high-pressure environments.

My programmes are delivered online to enable a high level of access and flexibility. I offer structured MBCT courses in a format that is both clinically informed and professionally attuned. Participants benefit from a consistent, supportive, and confidential environment, with an emphasis on cultivating attentional stability, present-moment awareness, and greater psychological insight.
MBCT is a well-established and research-backed approach that combines the principles of cognitive therapy with the meditative practices of mindfulness. My approach honours the integrity of the traditional 8-week programme, while also responding to the needs of discerning individuals who value depth, discretion, and a pragmatic focus. Whether participants are managing psychological distress, seeking to deepen self-awareness, or aiming to enhance performance in demanding roles, the structure of the programme provides both containment and challenge.
Alongside structured MBCT teaching, I offer mindfulness-based mentoring and follow-up integration sessions. These support long-term practice and ensure that insights gained during the course translate into meaningful shifts in daily life and professional performance.

My delivery is shaped by a commitment to ethical practice and professional standards. I am registered to teach MBCT with BAMBA (British Association of Mindfulness-Based Approaches), and my work is informed by ongoing supervision, continuing professional development, and a personal mindfulness practice that has evolved through many years of training, retreat attendance, and engagement with the broader mindfulness and psychology community.

Participants in my programmes consistently value the quality of presence, depth of psychological understanding, and thoughtful facilitation style that I bring. My intention is to offer a space that is both rigorous and compassionate—where individuals can meet their experience with greater awareness, and from that place, make choices that reflect their deepest values and aspirations.
Mindfulness is not a quick fix, but it is a powerful ally in cultivating clarity, focus, and equanimity. Whether you are navigating complexity in your personal life or leading others through uncertainty, MBCT offers a reliable and respectful framework for growth.
