From hospital wards in London to refugee camps in Hong Kong, my career has always centred on one question: How can we ease suffering and restore hope, quickly and safely?

I trained as a Registered Nurse at University College Hospital, added specialist eye-care skills at Moorfields, and served at the Royal Northern Hospital in the eye/ENT unit before exchanging medical studies for biblical studies. I spent two years in All Nations College, Ware, before following a calling abroad. In Kai Tak Camp, Hong Kong, I helped Vietnamese Boat People learn English, and later with the help of Jackie Pullinger opened a rehabilitation house for Vietnamese battling addiction. Working alongside the UNHCR deepened my understanding of trauma, and many years in Australia supporting resettled refugees taught me how resilient the human spirit can be.

That resilience was tested closer to home when my own family faced the fallout of complex PTSD. Watching someone I love struggle and seeing how traditional talk therapy often stalls, pushed me to search for an approach that delivers real change without re-traumatising.

I found it in TRTP™ (The Richards Trauma Process). Today I’m one of the few UK practitioners qualified in this evidence-based, three-step method. Over the course of five focused sessions we quiet the body’s fight-or-flight response, rewrite limiting beliefs, and anchor a future where calm is the baseline, not the exception.

Clients tell me they feel lighter, clearer and finally able to move forward, sometimes after decades of feeling stuck. One client couldn’t believe he had been carrying his trauma for 31 years… and now he is calm!

If you’re ready to turn the page on anxiety, panic, or long-held trauma, I’d be honoured to guide you. Let’s talk and see whether TRTP™ is the right next step for you.
