A person who has sat on both sides of innerwork.
I work at the intersection of therapeutic depth and coaching direction. Gain insight into how your past shows up in the present (that's the therapy bit) and move forward with clarity and confidence.

mental health is a commitment
not a reaction
I kept seeing the same thing.
Capable, self-aware people carrying more than they let on. Achieving on the outside. Unsettled on the inside. And most of them were waiting. For things to get bad enough. For a breakdown. For the crisis. For rock bottom.
That is the story the mental health industry tells, that we only attend to our mental health when something is wrong.
I do not believe that is mental health.
Mental health is something you tend to proactively not reactively. Prevention over intervention, potential over pathology, strengths-based over symptom focused, self leadership over dependency.
I also noticed most functioning people are carrying something unprocessed, something that drives maladaptive strategies. Patterns that run in the background affecting their confidence, their relationships, their ability to relax, to lead, to meet their own potential. Not because something is wrong with them. Because they are human.
That is why I built Inner Workings the way I did.
Psychotherapy brings the depth, understanding how the past shows up in the present. Coaching brings the direction, forward momentum, clarity, self-led action. Together they create something neither can do alone.

my BIG why.
my BIG why.
I am obsessed with understanding how people operate. Always have been.
For over 20 years I worked as a nail artist — which sounds unrelated until you realise that thousands of hours holding someone's hands across a small table teaches you more about human behaviour than most textbooks. People talk. They open up. I listened.
Owning and leading a large business sent me deep into my own self-development. You cannot lead others without understanding yourself first.
Over a decade playing elite touch football — including a World Cup — taught me how much we are capable of mentally and physically in the right environment. Performance and resilient mindset is built, not born.
I have experienced significant loss. I have spent years unpacking my own blueprint. What I inherited, how it shaped me, how it was quietly running the show before I ever noticed it.
I trained as an ICF coach. Discovered powerful tools, and kept noticing the same thing. Stuff was surfacing that coaching alone could not safely hold. So I went back to study psychotherapy and counselling. I wanted the science.
What I know now — from both sides of this work — is that the deepest change only happens when someone is stable enough to go there. Not in crisis. In capacity.

My Mosaic Journey
Every part of you developed for a reason. My work is to understand it, not push it aside.
I work with the parts that protect, strive, suppress, and carry unresolved experience. Using Resource Therapy, IFS, NLP, and dynamic coaching, I create the conditions for insight to become integration, and integration to become lasting change.
This is not about managing symptoms. It is about shifting what is underneath them.
I am also trained in Mental Health First Aid and ASIST, because psychological safety is not optional. It is the foundation everything else is built on.
