About Me

Since early childhood I have followed a deepening fascination for all aspects of the human psyche, being driven by my own creativity and inquisitve mind. This lifelong passion has lead me to increase my knowledge and experience in many inspiring ways and through diverse routes.

I gained my first arts degree in 1975, became a registerd yoga teacher with yoga scotland in 1985, graduated in art therapy with a post graduate dploma in 1997 and became a reiki master in 2001.

Since graduating from art school in 1975 I have facilitated art workshops in a wide ranging variety of settings. These have developed and changed over the years, however central throughout has been the development of self expression, creativity and insight in those participating.

My training as an art therapist has brought an additional dimension to my own experience and expanded the range of services I am able to offer.

I have taught Yoga for over 28 years and am a tutor on one of Yoga Scotland's two Foundation courses. Meditation, mindfulness and breathwork form the core of my own practice and teaching.
