I am always on the look-out for interesting development opportunities. Below I share some areas I'm currently exploring as part of broader thinking about what I can offer clients.
Anti-racist and anti-discriminatory practice
I am committed to developing my understanding of the experiences of marginalised groups, where my privilege lies, and improving my practice to better serve the whole community. I also welcome discussions and exploration within sessions where this feels relevant and helpful to my clients and supervisees.
I see my task as having two major threads - the first is to better understand where I might be unwittingly contributing to systemic oppression, and take steps to change this. The second is to do my best to be an ally to people who experience discrimination and prejudice.

Where therapy and healing meet quantum physics
I have for some time been interested in the traditional healing arts, and how these can work together with our modern, Western framework for understanding illness, wellness and recovery. A recent exploration into a cranio-sacral course, and completion of an equine-facilitated development training, opened up to me the fascinating intersection of quantum physics, the bioelectric energy which infuses all life in the universe, and the nature of traumatic stress and how to heal from this. Over the next year I hope to learn more about these fields and bring them to what I can offer those I work with.
