​I'm a psychospiritual therapist and writer offering tarot as a medium for intuitive creativity and self-trust.

​

As a writer, tarot has been transformational for my own creative process and craft.

 

I've been shortlisted twice for the Bath Short Story Award, longlisted for the Grindstone Literary International Novel Prize, recognised by the Bridport Prize, published by Mslexia, and I've just been shortlisted for the 2026 Queen Mary Wasafiri New Writing Prize.

​

To me, intuition and creativity and healing are one and the same thing. But it took me a while to realise this. 

​​

My journey

I first learned tarot from my paternal grandmother, a mystical Welsh woman (and I still have her cards.)

​

In my twenties, I followed my heart into the alternative therapy world, training in many different things, from past life regression to yoga therapy to energy healing.

​

I saw the shadow side of the spiritual world too though: ungrounded practices, unintegrated teachers, and spaces that were uncontained, even unsafe. In my early thirties I sought traditional therapy, trying to make sense of it all. 

 

What began as a curiosity about counselling somehow became a five-year Integrative Psychotherapy MA, a private practice in London, and a career as a trauma specialist. 

 

​By my forties I found myself firmly anchored in the rational therapeutic world and although I still continued with my spiritual practice and trainings I didn't know how to bring my two worlds together professionally as one. 

​

I was in my early forties when I began to burn-out. I had been stuck in my head for years, trapped by what I 'should' be doing. Yet I kept returning to Tarot - something that connected me to my spiritual lineage, my creativity and to the guiding hand of the universe (as I see it.)

​

I began a slow journey inwards, listening to my deeper intuition. I made the choice to stop working as a psychotherapist and begin offering therapeutically-informed Tarot instead... amongst other things.

​

I wanted to offer others the very thing I had needed myself: soulful exploration and intuitive creativity in a safe space.

​

This led me to the psychospiritual approach I now offer - something I call Soulcare.
