Description

I am currently taking some time out of work to travel and do Workaways. I want to learn more about trees, medicinal plants, herbalism, regeneration, building etc. I want to learn more about how people/different cultures/spiritual followings heal around the world. I would like to gather this knowledge and bring it into my own practice.

I am an art therapist and trauma therapist and have been working in this field for some time. I design and facilitate a lot of community arts projects particularly with working in mental health. I am also an artist and writer which I am taking this time out to spend more time on.

I also work as an integration therapist on plant medicine retreats. This takes me between Peru and Spain. I have training in shamanic healing practices and energy healing work. The combination of all of my training takes into account all levels of healing through the triquetra of mind, body and soul.

I feel happiest when i am in nature. I love camping and being outdoors. I love working outside annd with people. Other passions are scuba diving and free diving.

I’ve been fortunate enough to travel the world and live in multiple places around the world, including Hong Kong, Malaysian Borneo and Italy.

I am a happy, outgoing, well balanced and positive person who loves to learn from others but am also happy to share my teachings from over the years.

Before my work as an Art therapist I was an Art teacher for many years. I also have just completed my training in Swedish massage and I have my yoga teacher training certificate although this was mainly to deepen my own practice in yoga.

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile.😊
