Blending Educational Expertise and Therapeutic Practice for Flourishing Futures

Biography: Advocate for Growth and Wellbeing in Education and Therapeutic Support

Nurturing Potential, Inspiring Change

​

Education and therapeutic support are not merely professions for me—they are vocations stitched into the fabric of my life. Rooted in a passion for nurturing growth and championing transformation, my career has unfolded across continents and disciplines, always with a steadfast commitment to helping individuals—children and adults alike—become the best versions of themselves.

​

Educational Philosophy and Practice

​

I have always believed in the power of encouragement and the lifelong impact of self-esteem. Whether I am inspiring young learners or training future educators, my approach centres on instilling confidence, creativity, and a sense of purpose. Across my varied teaching roles, I have revelled in watching learners’ journeys—celebrating their milestones and quietly guiding them through challenges. My educational journey has been enriched by positions in universities in Singapore and internationally, where I have taught Psychology, Education, Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND), and Early Childhood, while also crafting and delivering tailored training (CPD) programmes both online and in person.

​

Therapeutic Support and Client-Centred Change

​

As a therapist, I am guided by a simple yet profound joy: witnessing clients harness their own will to change and seeing that transformation bloom in their lives. My practice is grounded in building trust—a quality children, in particular, sense instinctively. Each therapeutic relationship begins with mutual discovery, fostering a bond from which meaningful progress can grow. Through psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, and integrative techniques such as EFT/Tapping, I have helped clients address the barriers of daily anxieties and life’s stressors, whether in person or online, making support accessible and adaptable to modern life.

​

Qualifications and Continuous Professional Development

​

My dedication to lifelong learning is evidenced by a Bachelor’s degree and two Master’s degrees in education and SEND, alongside formal SENCo qualification. I have acquired additional certifications in Psychometric Assessment (Form 8/9), Psychotherapy and Counselling, Clinical Hypnotherapy, EFT/Tapping, and Clinical Supervision, and proudly serve as a Kenyon Emergency Responder. I am a member of the British Psychological Society (BPS), British Society for Clinical Hypnotherapists (BSCH), Emotional Freedom Technique International (EFTi), and Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ), among other professional bodies.

​

Leadership, Innovation, and International Impact

​

My career has been marked by entrepreneurial ventures, including founding and leading two companies dedicated to education and personal support: a fully accredited special needs school in Doha, Qatar, and a specialist support service with operational bases across the Middle East and Asia as well as international work. These initiatives have expanded the reach of education and therapeutic services—earning special recognition from governmental authorities and inspiring further growth in both local and international communities.

​

Hybrid Roles and Advocacy

​

What sets my journey apart is the hybrid nature of my roles, where teaching, therapy, consultancy, and supervision intersect. This blend of skills allows me to be an unwavering advocate for those I serve, continually re-energising my passion and sense of purpose. Whether supporting individuals, families, educators, or therapists, I bring an adaptable, compassionate approach that honours the unique needs and aspirations of each person.

​

Global Perspective and Vision

​

As a global citizen—with a portfolio of international experiences—I have embraced the richness of diverse cultures and perspectives. My drive, curiosity, and willingness to seize opportunities have shaped a unique professional identity, one I hope inspires others to pursue growth regardless of the world's unpredictability.

​

Commitment to Empowerment and Collaboration

​

My primary focus remains unwavering: to help people, the very young through to the more mature and those surrounding them who shape their futures. I wish everyone to flourish and to support individuals and organisations in discovering pathways to wellbeing and success. I invite you to explore opportunities for collaboration—whether educational, therapeutic, or a harmonious blend of both—confident that my skills, experience, and heartfelt advocacy can help you or your organisation reach new heights.

​

If you are seeking support, guidance, or partnership, know that my approach is always bespoke, collaborative, and attuned to your goals. Together, we can create a programme that empowers you to greet each day with energy, confidence, and optimism—ready to own the day and every day thereafter.
