About Me

I am an associate teacher / trainer and supervisor for Breathworks, having taught their 8 week Mindfulness for Health and Mindfulness for Stress courses, both in person and online, regularly since 2015. I am part of the Breathworks Teacher Training Team and a registered supervisor, currently providing regular supervision to several mindfulness teachers. As well as teaching Breathworks courses I teach MBSR and MBCT and I have a Masters (Distinction) in Teaching Mindfulness Based Approaches from the Centre for Mindfulness Research and Practice at the University of Bangor. I also teach MBCT for Life, Finding Peace in a Frantic World and the Oxford Mindfulness Foundation Going Deeper course all of which I also enjoy. I regularly run retreats, both alone and with colleagues. I teach the general public both online and in person, and I offer one to one sessions which I particularly enjoy tailoring to the specific needs of the individual, well as teaching regular 8 week courses both to groups and individuals. I specialise in Mindfulness for people living with Pain and long term health conditions (as I do myself) as well as mindfulness for parents, university and secondary school students. My masters thesis was on providing Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction to Parents of Teenagers.
