Homeopathy is my passion however the heart of my work is a simple message; that we rethink what 'dis-ease' really means and how we understand symptoms and illness. Rather than seeing them as problems to silence, we can learn to view them as signals from the body, guiding us towards change and balance. Symptoms truly are a gift, if we are willing to listen and act accordingly. My journey began in the healing arts space with energy healing, this introduced me to Homeopathy. I soon realised how deep acting Homeopathy is, treating the root cause of dis-ease rather than just putting a 'plaster' over symptoms and their cause. Energy healing is wonderful, but it could not compare to the permanent and deep acting change Homeopathy provides. I witnessed the profound effect on my nephew's severe eczema and on my own life; I then knew I needed to learn this remarkable medicine! I graduated from a three-year course at the River School of Homeopathy blended with Naturopathy, Osteopathy and Cranial alongside a solid foundation of Physiology, Pathology and Medical Diagnosis. The course also has a key focus on the importance of Traditional Chinese Medicine alongside allied to trauma and how this impacts our whole bodily system, if left untreated. My incredible teacher Helen Johnson learnt from Dr Ramakrishnan; a brilliant Indian homeopath trained by Margery Blackie, the first female Royal Physician to Queen Elizabeth II and founder of the Homeopathic Hospital in London. I believe the healing process begins when you walk through my door, before any homeopathic remedies are given. We as Homeopaths open the healing space, by listening; Homeopathy is truly a therapy. I am proud to have built my practice around a heart-centred approach, creating a clinic filled with love and compassion for my clients and their healing process.
