Hi!
I'm a passionate advocate for the healing power of nature, especially when integrating contemplative practice during visits to natural places. I've loved being in nature since I was a kid and this has guided me in my work and education. I have degrees in ecology (BSc), sustainability (MSc) and ecopsychology (PhD). I worked in the environmental planning field for around 15 years as a consultant. During and after this time I volunteered my expertise and efforts for numerous community and environmental organisations, mostly in relation to environmental/planning campaigns.
In my early 40s, I began to more consciously seek nature’s healing embrace as a way to experience deeper connection and unburden myself of troubling thoughts, emotions and feelings. My increasing unease with personal directions and environmental/ social issues, as well as mid-life upheaval, motivated me to undertake my doctorate in ecopsychology to explore the healing power of nature using contemplative and perceptual practices.
I offer my expertise and passion for nature connection to people seeking deeper experiences of connection, healing and inner peace in their lives. I bring years of doctoral research and connection practice to offer an authentic, integrated approach to nature connection that offers healing at all levels of your being. I enjoy seeing my clients let go and become present to the beauty and spirit of natural places. I hope to be able to help you enter into the spacious healing of nature.
Warm regards
