My vision
To be seen as an influential leader and powerful advocate in creating global recognition that unconditional, meaningful relationship connection is key to human development. To be the person responsible for demonstrating healthy connecting methods with each other and self, with the view of developing empowered thoughtful individuals who are not only leaders in their own lives, but who see unconditional acceptance as the desired path moving forward.

This is me
I am a passionate advocate for those experiencing eating disorders. I am a Mother, Partner, Secondary Home Economics Teacher and Reality Therapy Certified Counsellor. I enjoy playing the piano, singing and pursuing a range of creative outlets.
Over a number of years I have assisted many by providing understanding as to why their lives are seemingly heading in a downward spiral, particularly those experiencing an eating disorder. I have witnessed the frustration of too many not having the tools, skills, nor understanding as to how to navigate their way through a difficult life experience. I acknowledge a huge need in providing this knowledge. My programs are collections of quality information, reflecting my own journey, and designed to equip you with the directions you deserve, to overcome your current situation.

In conversation with so many whose lives are impacted by an eating disorder, I acknowledge common lines of enquiry:
Searching for ‘why’?
Frustrated for ‘how’?
Screaming for ‘out’?
This is where I believe my lived experience, extensive knowledge and compassionate understanding will be a valuable input toward your journey ahead.
Your solutions deserve to be identified.
Allow me to be that guiding hand as you navigate your pathway toward full recovery.

“It gave me understanding”
I recommend this book to anyone who has struggled with issues from their past whether it be eating disorders, any form of abuse, neglect or those that are dealing with addictions of any kind.
Alison Lucas
“Compelling and a eye opener”
This is much more than a book about an eating disorder. This is a book about total betrayal and destruction of a person by the people expected to protect you. It is a book about determination and hope.
Roger Langford
“From the heart”
The author’s resilience through the suffering and her eventual healing is encouraging for anyone who has experienced childhood trauma, because the message is; you “CAN” confront and you “CAN” heal
