About Me

I was born and raised in London, England and moved to Barcelona when I was 25 in 2016.

Since then I have navigated a long-distance relationship of 5 years, become fluent in the language, found a community of meaningful friendships and am living by my true passion as a coach.   

Dance, movement and yoga have been my saviours. They accompany me through both my darkest and most joyful times in my life. I take them with me wherever I go.

My professional training includes; First Class degree in Psychology (Bsc), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Archetypal Psychology, Inner Child, Internal Family Systems, Trauma Informed Coaching, Yoga and Mindfulness, and Creative Arts Therapy (Music, Art and Dance).

My Journey

Another Monday on the overcrowded tube in London heading into my 9-5 job as a psychology researcher, with the same drinking nights planned for the weekend, I began to question;

 Is this it? Is this how I’m meant to feel? 

I was living what was seen as a “good life”, one that was expected of me… And yet underneath I felt anxious, drained and unfulfilled. 

Lost, confused and not knowing where to turn; alcohol and unhealthy habits with food and exercise became my coping mechanisms to numb my feelings underneath. All the while a little voice inside kept telling me; 

There is more than this.

I was yearning to discover what I truly wanted and who I really was outside the place I had always lived, and the people I had always known.

Having fallen in love with Spain during our summers in a small Andalusian village, I knew it was time to make the move. Arriving in Barcelona, I was full of excitement and determination to begin this new journey. 

Days spent soaking up the sun and exploring the city were all I had imagined... But they came amongst a rollercoaster of emotions and unexpected challenges. I was confident and outgoing, yet felt lonely and frustrated that I wasn't settling in sooner. I missed genuine friendships, struggled integrating into the culture and lacked real purpose. It was time to look deeper and ask myself;

Why am I here? What am I here to do?

As I began my own personal development journey with incredible mentors and coaches, I let go of unhelpful expectations from myself and others and discovered what true happiness and success meant to me; I found a harmonious balance between work and life, developed beautiful lifelong friendships and fell back in love with my passion as a coach. I’m so thrilled to say that I can now call Barcelona my true home.  

 

It is now my mission to ensure that you don’t have to experience the same struggles alone. Whether it’s enabling you to discover your true purpose, activate your potential and live a life of more meaning and fulfilment,

I am here for you.
