A keen sportswoman, I have always had a deep love of the outdoors. Skiing, snowboarding, hiking and surfing have all played an important role in my life and continue to inspire the way I live and work today.

Originally from the UK and a mother of two daughters, I have lived in the Chamonix Valley with my husband and family since 2015. Before settling here, I spent many years travelling extensively and living in different parts of the world from the age of 18 onwards.

Those years brought a wide variety of experiences and occupations — from chalet hosting, bar work and cleaning to fruit picking and working in a nursing home for the elderly. I also worked on a birdwatching boat and qualified as a snowboard instructor in New Zealand, where I spent several winters teaching.

At the age of 24, I gained my first IRATA qualification (International Rope Access Trade Association) and went on to work in rope access for the following seven years, eventually achieving a Level 3 Supervisor qualification.

When I decided to start a family, I chose to move away from rope access work and began retraining as a therapist — a path that combined my long-standing interest in healing and helping others.

With a lifelong involvement in outdoor sports has also come my fair share of injuries and setbacks. Having experienced recovery and rehabilitation myself, I understand the frustrations, fears and challenges that can accompany injury, and I believe this helps me support clients with greater empathy and understanding.

I believe that my varied professional and personal experiences allow me to connect easily with people of all ages and from all walks of life, bringing empathy, understanding and a grounded approach to my work as a therapist.
