.............................................. I was born and raised in Surrey, England, and from a young age I felt drawn to the mysteries of life and to understanding what lies beneath the surface of things. My own life experiences eventually became part of that exploration, leading me into a deeper journey of healing, self-discovery, and spiritual practice. At 17, I received my first Reiki training, never imagining where that small beginning would lead. Over the following decades, I continued to study and travel, eventually journeying to the Nilgiri Mountains of India to study Ayurveda and to Thailand to train in Thai Massage. Along the way, I also immersed myself in yoga, sound, drumming, meditation, herbs, and traditional healing practices. Becoming a mother changed me in ways no training could have prepared me for. After experiencing intense postpartum challenges following the births of my daughters, I came to understand the importance of being truly supported during the transitions of motherhood - not just physically, but emotionally and energetically too. Those experiences continue to shape my work today. Rather than following a fixed formula, I draw from everything I've learned and allow each woman and each session to guide what is needed. I believe healing begins with somewhere you feel safe enough to put everything down and to feel safe enough to release and open to receive. That is the kind of space I have created at Ahimsa - and the kind of space I hope you feel when you walk through the door.
