I have 15 years experience in delivering evidence-based psychotherapies in various NHS Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) services around the UK. This led to my interest in Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) as a relapse prevention tool for recurrent clinical depression.
I have been practising meditation since attending an eight-week mindfulness course in 2011. In 2020 I graduated with a Master of Arts (MA) in Teaching Mindfulness and a certificate of competence in teaching MBCT from the University of Bangor.
I am currently a self-employed mindfulness teacher and supervisor. I am registered on British Association of Mindfulness Based Approaches (BAMBA) as an MBCT teacher. I am a trained, level 3 assessor in Mindfulness Based Interventions: Teaching Assessment Criteria (MBI:TAC).
