I work in partnership with people who have a health problem that is causing them worry and bother. Commonly clients are in pain or discomfort, feeling lost and overwhelmed and may be soldiering on or battling with things, unsure of where to start or next steps. Sometimes it’s a chronic problem that won’t improve, or sometimes it’s something new and worsening, but frequently there will be shades of both.

Often people will have seen a GP, a specialist in the NHS or be on medication, but are finding they need a bit more than a 10 minute appointment. They want an approach that looks at things in a more joined up and holistic way and where they will be seen and heard more personally. Whilst holding regard for conventional care and its benefits and limitations, there is perhaps a want to steer away from hierarchy and institution, towards a space where there is more time to question, explore and understand.

Many are seeking a more natural and authentic approach, they want to deepen understanding of what’s going on and what they can do for themselves. I find my clients know their concerns well and are often active in researching their health and different opinions, maybe using herbs, food, supplements or helpful practices themselves at home, all of which I love hearing about and supporting. There is often a desire to connect with the healing we can find in plants and nature, and the beauty and awe we find in the outdoors. If this sounds like you, you’re in the right place!
