With a rich tapestry of professional experiences, I am a seasoned practitioner in the realms of hypnosis, spiritual counseling, Reiki, and end-of-life support. Two years ago, I made the conscious decision to transition away from the corporate environment, propelled by a desire to delve deeper into holistic healing and personal transformation. My journey began in an office from junior to office manager to executive assistant. I spent eight years as a part-time professor at Durham College, where taught in the Business, IT & Management school. Prior to that, I contributed my expertise to The Manchester College in the UK for three years. These experiences honed my skills in education and mentorship, laying a solid foundation for my future endeavors. I spent eight years in Personal Banking at a prominent Canadian bank. Here, I cultivated a wealth of experience in personal finance, empowering clients to navigate their financial landscapes with confidence and clarity. My commitment to social impact led me to serve as a Financial Administrator at a Women's Domestic Violence Shelter in Canada, where I played a pivotal role in supporting vulnerable individuals on their journey to empowerment and independence. Driven by a passion for advocacy and education, I volunteered as a facilitator for the Daughter Project, delivering courses to young girls to raise awareness against human trafficking. This experience instilled in me a profound sense of purpose and further deepened my commitment to fostering holistic well-being. Drawing upon my diverse background in academia, finance, and social services, I embarked on the entrepreneurial path, founding Hypnosis & Healing. Here, I integrate hypnotic techniques, spiritual counseling, Reiki energy healing, and compassionate end-of-life support to guide clients on their healing journey. My mission is not only to address surface-level issues but to facilitate profound healing and transformation at a deeper level.

In 2020 I was faced with a tremendous loss of my support network; my husband passed away within 8 weeks of being diagnosed with esophageal cancer and my mum 8 months later with lung cancer. Both were my backbone, moral compasses, and my love and support. I felt very lost and with no indication of how I would survive without them. I was back in a place of darkness, the pain was immense, and the waves could have pushed me over the edge. I knew I could not give up, no matter how hurt I felt. I was still practicing my hypnosis and meditation every day. I knew as before when I had Breast Cancer that this was the only thing to get me through. As, previously, I had learnt, that no-one could help me; no matter who they were, they were not there with me at my darkest times, it was just me. Me alone, crying on the floor in the night screaming for myself and what I had lost. Every day felt like "Ground Hog Day". Thankfully, I had my cats & dogs, I had reason to get up in the morning, I try not to think of what my life would be like if I didn't have them. I was fed up with healing; I just wanted to be well and strong and get through this but it was taking time. I kept my faith, as hard as it was, I had to believe all this pain was for something. I continued to practice every day, sometimes twice a day. Somehow, my mind started becoming clearer again, although I could not plan anything (I was afraid it would be taken away), I continued to practice, and seek support by connecting with like-minded people and groups. It wasn't easy but nothing worth it is. Slowly but surely, my mind started to become clearer and I started to attract more of what I needed and less of what I did not need.
