I am an experienced teacher/trainer, Louise Hay practitioner, workshop leader, life coach, homeopath, holistic therapist, mother and grandmother. In my early working life, I was a secretary/PA  before training to be a comprehensive  school Design and Technology teacher.  This career change lasted 3 years and I returned (exhausted) to secretarial work and had some fantastic jobs in the publishing and  art worlds.  Homesick for friends and family, I came back to live in South Shields in 2002 and began training to be a Homeopath the following year.

After experiencing  a dis-ease that could not be cured by conventional medicine, I became interested in complementary therapies.  Homeopathy, although not completely curing the physical problem, had helped to strengthen my immune system, increased my self esteem and calmed down 'vicious' pre-menstrual tension.  I wanted to help other people have access to his gentle method of healing and I am now qualified and a registered member of the Society of Homeopaths.

While training to be a Homeoapth, I was introduced to the work of Louise L Hay whose philosophy has helped thousands of people all over the world to identify and overcome things that limit their life.  From the premise, 'it is only a thought and a thought can be changed,' for me Louise continued the work that homeopath had started.  In 2006 I completed a week intensive training to enable me to coach people and facilitate workshops using her methods.

In my homeopathic practice I have worked all age groups and sexes and particularly enjoy working with women and children.  Homeopathy can help all sorts of problems.  Below are some (this is not an exclusive list) of them that I have treated to date: Acne Allopecia Asthma / cat hair allergy Bedwetting Behaviour problems in children Blephritis Boils Bronchiectasis Candida Colds and flu Constipation Ear problems - ache, over production of wax Eczema / psoriasis / dermatitis Erectile dysfunction Fatigue Food allergy Hayfever Irritable bowel syndrome Low self esteem and self confidence Menopause symptoms – flushing, frequent urination, Migraine Mild depression / anxiety Morning sickness and other pregnancy problems Muscular aches and pain Nocturnal enuresis Performance anxiety Pre-menstrual tension Rheumatic pain Shock Sleep problems Stress Tinnitis Warts and veruccas
