I work with organisations and communities to build cultures that don’t destroy people.
And I support individuals and couples to work through challenges and move towards what matters most.
You might be facing a big challenge, or sensing something isn’t quite right. Noticing a pattern that keeps repeating. Or feeling the pull to work or live differently.
I often work with:
Organisations and leaders navigating culture, conflict or performance.
Men and fathers carrying responsibility, pressure or frustration.
Couples wanting to understand patterns, deepen connection or repair after rupture.
People living with ongoing mind or body challenges.
It needn’t be a crisis, it might an opportunity. As Gabor Mate says, "safety is not the absence of threat, it is the presence of connection".

How I Work
Facilitator, conflict mediator, coach, trainee psychotherapist.
I will work with you as an individual or group to discover what sits underneath.
What are the patterns in how you think, feel and relate; the successful strategies that might be fraying; the ways you might now be holding yourself back?
Working with me, we won’t rush to fix or label things. We can talk and/or work more experientially. We’ll take time to try to understand what’s actually happening and to discover possible new ways ahead.
I’m anti-oppressive, LGBTQ+ affirmative, and work on a sliding scale.
BESPOKE
Strengths-based: not ‘off-the-shelf’ but building on what works for you.
RELATIONAL
Complexity-informed: rooted in the science of how change happens.
RESPONSIVE
Disturbances as doorways: find subtle wisdom in conflicts and struggles.
About Me
I started out as a theatre director, exploring how the stories we tell shape our world.
Since then, I’ve worked across community development, leadership, and social change. I’m also training as a psychotherapist.
What links it all is a simple belief: that what happens beneath the surface shapes far more of our everyday reality than we tend to admit, and that paying more attention to this can change how we live and work.
I’ve worked with global human rights defenders and local community builders. Senior leaders from across sectors and everyday people navigating ill health. Mission driven social innovators and young people born in conflict zones.
From them all I’ve learned that there can often be creative seeds in our biggest disturbances. And that “we resolve outer problems sustainably only if they are resolved internally as well” - Arnie Mindell.
Working Together
I’m based in East London in the UK and work both online and in-person.
