After 25 years as a sustainability professional, I became as a Humanist UK celebrant, rediscovering my passion for life writing as I wrote and conducted non-religious ceremonies for couples and families. 

At the same time, I began studying counselling theory and practice and planned to train as a therapist. I even had a place on a course when I stumbled across a Master's offered by the Metanoia Institute: Creative Writing for Therapeutic Purposes. 

Three years and thousands of words later, I achieved my MSc. I made the daunting leap into self-employment and founded The Wellness Writing Room. 

I am now privileged to guide people like you to find inner calm, connection and healing through creative writing.
