It was while at medical school in the early 1980s that I became fascinated by the interaction of psychological states and physical health and through this interest began my own mindfulness practice. After graduating from medical school I began teaching mindfulness practice in educational, community and corporate settings and this has continued through my employment at the University of Salford initially as a physiology lecturer. Now as a senior lecturer in the College of Health and Social Care almost all my lecturing is related mindfulness practice delivered to undergraduates, postgraduates and professionals. I have continued to train in different mindfulness related approaches: I am an accredited Breathworks Trainer and have also undertaken the mindfulness Teacher Development Retreat 1 at Bangor University. I am also a qualified hypnotherapist.

I have been a Homoeopath in private practice for 23 years and have had a personal mindfulness practice for even longer. As a lecturer in Homoeopathy at the University of Salford I was given the opportunity to be involved in the delivery of the Integrated Mindfulness modules and am delighted to have been able to bring these two important strands in my life together. I am currently working towards an MSc in Teaching Mindfulness Based Approaches at Bangor University;  my particular interest is in developing the integration of mindfulness into therapeutic practice. I have a long interest in and experience of supervision and supervisory training and am experienced in working with both groups and individual clients. My approach is practical and responsive and I really enjoy adapting myself and what I do to meet the particular requirements of individuals and groups.
