My purpose

is to help you to explore who you truly are and what you really want from life, particularly if you are at a point where your life has changed.

About me

I have been helping women from my teenage years shopping for elderly women in my local residential home, to teaching English to immigrant women, to breastfeeding support and mother and baby groups and now helping women to find out ‘what’s next?’.

As part of my Halcyon Community, I run online and offline groups. Most of my members are older women but we also benefit from the energy of our younger participants. Women supporting and inspiring each other is a powerful thing.

Once, I had a high-flying career, but gave it up to bring up my two sons. I had a wide range of volunteer roles and eventually found my way to complimentary therapies.

I have been studying Usui Reiki since 2002 and have been teaching students since 2008. Reiki helps you to restore your mind and body to balance; most people find it deeply relaxing and some people find it helps with anxiety and pain control. I am a Registered Teacher with The Reiki Guild and comply with their Codes of Practice and Ethics.  As well as studying with my local teacher, I have studied with internationally renowned teachers Frans and Bronwen Stiene and Pamela Miles. I hold a City and Guilds award in Teaching in the Lifelong Learning sector and in addition to the system of Reiki, I teach meditation classes. I am a certified Indigo Essences Practitioner and an Australian Bush Flower Essences practitioner.

My main focus now is supporting women through my community, Halcyon. Once I moved across the country, working online allowed me to keep in touch with existing clients and students and reach more women in more places.

I love living by the sea in South Shields, the pace of life suits me.

Where I practice

You can find me in South Shields or Newcastle in the Northeast, where I moved in 2016 or once a month I am in West Wickham and Croydon where I see individual clients and run my existing groups and classes. Flower Essence consultations can be done over Skype or Zoom and essences posted out to you.
