What I enjoy most about my work
My frame of reference is an openness and acceptance of ability/disability, age, class, culture, education, ethnicity, gender, race, religion, sexuality and spirituality. I have a positive view of people and their potential, which has led me to study and train to be a therapist who is open and accepting of everyone.
The therapeutic journey, as I am working in the orchard of life alongside wonderful fruit trees as they grow, becoming stronger, blossoming, flourishing, producing their harvest and achieving their full potential.
My interests outside of work
As well as being a therapist I am also a gardener and garden designer. I am passionate about nature, being outdoors, creativity, music, art, writing, socialising and spending time with my friends/loved ones.
