About Me

I'm a developing person, trained and self-informed in a variety of therapies, all with a Person-Centred delivery.

I attended some of the "Zero" workshops, facilitated by Daevid Allen (of Gong, Soft Machine etc.) and his then partner, Wandana, in the late 1980s. This introduced me to real Astrology, Counselling/Psychotherapy, Tarot reading and Aromatherapy and really helped me move forward in life. Having learned how to do them all. I now offer most of them to you (Aromatherapy currently on hold).
