After returning to the UK, following ten years abroad, I continued to practise Hypnotherapy and specialised in HypnoBirthing. However, to ensure my skills were aligned with UK standards I began the process of gaining professional accreditation. This included gaining my COSCA Certificate and SCOTACS Diploma in CBT & Groupwork, and Advanced Clinical Skills, eventually leading to BACP Registration and BABCP Accreditation.

At the time my work focused on supporting couples and families - particularly during the pre - and post natal periods. To enhance this area of practice, I completed additional training in Family Systemic Therapy.

More recently, with over 35 years of experience in their field, my career naturally evolved towards teaching and training. I served as Course Director and Senior Lecturer, and alongside this became a Clinical Supervisor, mentoring and supervising early-career therapists.I also began managing teams of CBT Therapists and Clinical Psychologists, both in clinical and operational capacities, while collaborating with Emergency Services and Government Organisations.

During the Pandemic Lockdowns, I completed an MSc in CBT, focussing on Trauma. This period gave me the opportunity to re-assess my work-life balance and transition from the fast-paced environment of in-house clinical work, back into private practice. I now work with private clients, health insurance providers, and medico-legal services.

In addition, as a CBT Therapist, I have completed EMDR training and gained certification in The Rewind Technique for Trauma. I am currently working on my EMDR accreditation.
