Thank you for being here.

I offer trauma informed, identity affirming counselling, therapy and nature therapy.

I hold spaces for people to explore nature based spirituality, connect with the land and honour cycles and seasons.

I offer sound based meditation and sound healing practices.

I believe that healing, growth and self discovery is most impactful when it is rooted in exploring the mind, body and soul, as well as being underpinned by values around community, equity, justice and liberation. I weave psychology, somatics, neuroscience, spirituality, movement, nature, meditation, ritual and ceremony into all of my offerings.

My path to supporting others began with my own need to understand myself more deeply. I have walked a path that has led me to explore mental health struggles, what it means to be a human and how to find meaning as I explore the journey that we call life. The Clear Space is where I share offerings, practices, reflections and tools that have also guided and nurtured me on this journey.

Continue exploring to discover more about my offerings. You can head here to explore bespoke workshops and past projects, or contact me here if you would like to work with me. You’ll find tools, reflections and resources on my blog or delve deeper into some of my values here.

Welcome to The Clear Space where hope and healing converge, where each moment holds the potential for transformation, and where, step by step, we continue our journeys towards a deeper connection with ourselves and each other.

  • Rarely, if ever, are any of us healed in isolation. Healing is an act of communion.

  • Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

  • Queering something breaks rules in order to liberate people who have been held hostage by what the rules require or prevent.

  • Even a wounded world is feeding us. Even a wounded world holds us, giving us moments of wonder and joy. I choose joy over despair. Not because I have my head in the sand, but because joy is what the earth gives me daily and I must return the gift.

From counselling and somatic therapy in Birmingham and online, to nature therapy, ritual, meditation and nourishing sound baths that help you to deeply relax, all Clear Space offerings are about exploring our connection to ourselves, others and the world around us in a trauma informed and affirming way.
