I can still remember walking out of the Psychology Department when I finished my degree, and feeling a real sense of sadness. I knew that I would not be studying again for a long time, and that I was going to miss it. So I left psychology behind and pursued a different calling, as an actor. It was many years later that I heard about life coaching. At the time I felt changing my career path would be impossible, but the idea of helping people to create better and more fulfilling lives would be a way to use my love of psychology in a positive way. So I decided to retrain, and now I am able to use what I know about psychology to help people to create the habits and strategies to achieve what it is they are looking for. Whether that is the new career, business or healthy lifestyle. It is a real privilege to work with people and hear about their dreams and ambitions and see how to make it all possible.
It was later on in my career as a life coach that I became aware of Emotional Freedom Techniques and their power to help individuals move through an infinite number of difficulties in their lives.
I qualified with Distinction from the Coaching Academy as a life coach and am also a certified NLP and EFT Practitioner. I have an MA in Psychology from Edinburgh University.
I trained as an actress at ALRA in London and have acted in many plays, including in the West End.
