Prior to training as a therapist, I had a career in marketing. From this experience, I am aware of the pressures a fast-paced, challenging and demanding working environment can impact our well being. After exiting marketing, I began to explore ways of connecting to my experience to help others. I started working in mental health and employment projects in Hackney. I worked with many people from diverse cultures and backgrounds for over five years. I developed ways of using recovery-oriented and creative ways of supporting my clients to be less stuck and to take their next steps in their journey.
