I have gained my experience through working with charitable organisations that support people struggling with addiction and homelessness. I volunteered at The Crypt in Leeds<\/strong>, a centre supporting women in addiction recovery, and completed my placement at Platform 1 in Huddersfield<\/strong> \u2013 an organisation focused on mental health and helping people through difficult times.<\/p>

For many years, I have accompanied people on their journey out of addiction \u2013 whether todrugs, sex, compulsive behaviours, or what is often called \u201ctoxic love\u201d \u2013 using the 12-steprecovery programme. I understand how vital empathy, individuality and a non-judgementalapproach are in the healing process.<\/p>

Professionally, I also support individuals after spinal injuries, combining work on movement, healthy nutrition, and good habits<\/strong> with rebuilding mental and emotional balance.<\/p>

In my life, I am guided by Christian values and spirituality<\/strong>, which help me see each person as a whole \u2013 with love, faith and hope. I believe that true change begins from within, when a person discovers their own worth and the deeper meaning of life.<\/p>

Privately, I love travelling \u2013 it allows me to better understand different perspectives, cultures, and human stories. In my therapeutic work, I believe that every person has the strength within them to change \u2013 sometimes, they just need someone to help them find it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
