My Journey

What do I do?

 

I have worked with individuals and groups of people with mental ill health, special educational needs, trauma, abuse and substance misuse as well a range of other health and wellbeing concerns for over 25 years, with people of all ages including young people and young adults. I have both a background in the scientific and the spiritual.

 

My Education

 

I have a Bsc (Hons) Biomedical Science degree and have taught science to A level. I also hold qualifications in energy healing (including home and land healing), NLP, PSYCH-K, mentoring, youth work, safeguarding, counselling skills, teaching and many IT qualifications from my time as an IT consultant. I have spent all of my career in ‘helping roles’ whether working with young people while running youth groups, young offenders, those that would otherwise be homeless, as a life coach, employment coach, people with complex needs and even within my IT roles. All roles have encompassed a teaching element whether part of or all of the role.

 

The Spirit

 

From the spiritual perspective I was aware of ‘spirit’ from a young age and often had an inner knowing of things to come. This developed further in my teens and I often had people come to me in college and tell me about their problems and I seemed to have this knowledge from somewhere, even at 16, with people often coming back to say this had helped.

The Breaking Point

One Event That Changed Everything

My Grandfather

 

It wasn't until the death of my Grandfather in 2003, that I took stock of my life and decided a number of things that I was going to do. This included developing my spiritual gifts, something I was constantly being given a spiritual nudge to do! As I'd been ignoring their prompts one night one of my relatives woke me up in the middle of the night, appearing at the end of my bed and giving me his heart attack symptoms, that certainly got my attention!
Shortly after I met someone at work who went to a spiritualist church, I’d never heard of these and explained what had been happening, so they suggested I go. Within a few weeks I was asked to join a development circle to develop my gifts and it all began from there. I went on to join several development circles, to learn and qualify in ‘spiritual healing’ and to run my own development circle.

 

Mediumship and Healing

 

I regularly used my mediumship and healing over the years to great effect however sometimes I was finding that spiritual healing was not enough. I was once shown someone’s energy field (like in a cartoon) where the person was shot many times and then drank a glass of water and all the water came out. This was to illustrate to me that there was a problem with the integrity of their energy (holes/tears). I had not been trained in how to do this so I asked the universe for a way and found some Energy Healing courses that showed me how to do this and much more.

Around this time I suffered the loss of two people very dear to me, both of a young age so I stepped away from my work for a while and eventually then returned to focus on the healing side of things which encompass my psychic and mediumistic gifts.

 

The Transformation

 

I use a range of modalities including in depth spiritual and energy healing techniques, which are also taught as part of the courses I have developed as well as through mentoring. These consider all aspects of the individual, environment (including their home and land), family and ancestral connections plus other aspects of their lives.

These transformational techniques provide holistic health and education, freeing people from past events which then allows them to move forward unimpeded and create new lives.
