Thanks for exploring my website
I've always loved nature.
But it took two significant events in my life to truly appreciate its power.
In 2002 I lost my father and in 2007 I was diagnosed with breast cancer.
​
Although heartbreaking, these experiences made me aware that nature is the root of all healing, thus motivating me to follow my heart and start Satori.
​
I am an experienced reflexologist. And, since 2015 I've been studying, and subsequently teaching, traditional basket weaving, beginning my learning under the auspices of the late English master craftsman, Mr. Ivor Hancock.
​
My personal self-development and fields of study are wide-ranging, from disciplines such as horse riding instructor, shamanism and Focusing. In 2022, after a three-year post-graduate training, I qualified as a Pesso Boyden Psychotherapist. I'm currently undertaking a clinical placement in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy with Arc in Axminster and Age UK.
​
In 2015/16 I completed the foundation year of Sensory Solutions' herbalists apprenticeship. I then went on to complete a one-year wild food teacher training course with Ffyona Campbell.
​
Inspired by my cancer journey and whilst pursuing my philosophy degree at the University of East Anglia, I discovered the power of creative writing for wellbeing.
​
This all said, ultimately I know it’s not just my credentials that bring a connection to what I offer. It’s my care for people, my warm spirit and my love of Mother Earth.
