Qualifications & Professional Development
My work has developed over many years and across a number of different areas of mental health, health science and complementary therapies.
Some of that learning has resulted in formal qualifications and practitioner training, while other professional development has helped broaden my knowledge and understanding and continues to inform the way I work today.
​
I continue to undertake professional development
as part of my ongoing learning and practice.
