I have been working in people development for over 40 years, initially as a modern linguist and tennis coach, in both state and private schools. I then founded Esteem workshops, leading a team of volunteers to design and deliver workshops with pupils in years 6-13 on topics such as Building self-esteem and How to form healthy friendships and relationships.

Following that I completed 5 years of counselling training, including a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, Specialist Trauma training, Level 1 Theraplay training and a Foundation year in Transactional Analysis (TA) at the Berne Institute. I am a CTA (Certified Transactional Analyst) in Education and am currently working towards ICF accreditation as a Therapeutic coach. I have a passion for learning and my latest training is in Physical Intelligence at the Physical Intelligence Institute.

I now work in private practice alongside delivering online TIFF Provider Licensing training for Functional Fluency International. TIFF is the self-development tool which highlights people’s behavioural strengths and when they are using their energy effectively. It is excellent for both individuals and couples, leaders, parents, those in caring professions, such as teachers and health care workers but also for anyone who wants to grow in their self-awareness. I also deliver half day Introduction to Functional Fluency workshops online and in person as well as INSET training for staff teams.

In my free time I enjoy playing tennis, travelling, interior design and walking in the beautiful Cotwold countryside.
