About the Host
I am a psychologist and wellbeing specialist with experience across clinical, educational, and care settings, as well as a background in hospitality. I bring a practical and person-centred approach, combining strong interpersonal skills with evidence-based methods, including Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), CBT, and mindfulness.
I have experience supporting individuals and groups in developing key skills such as communication, emotional regulation, stress management, and resilience. I am particularly interested in applying psychology within organisational settings, supporting leadership development, team dynamics, and workplace wellbeing.
I also have experience in delivering awareness workshops for people living with long-term conditions.
I am collaborative, adaptable, and focused on translating psychological concepts into clear, practical strategies that support people in real life.
