My Purpose and Mission
At Holistic Care Durham, my work is simple and practical:
I help people calm their nervous system, release long-held stress, and feel steady in themselves again.
I work with people who are burnt out, anxious, emotionally overloaded, or who have been “coping” for far too long. My approach is grounded, compassionate, and focused on what your body and mind actually need, not quick fixes or surface-level relaxation.
I am an integrative therapist and Reiki Master Teacher, with a background as a former NHS nurse. That means I work safely, professionally, and with a strong understanding of the nervous system, emotional health, and the body as a whole.
Alongside 1-to-1 therapeutic work, I also teach Reiki professionally, supporting students to build confident, ethical, and grounded practices of their own. Teaching is a core part of what I do, not an add-on.
Whether you come to me for hands-on therapy, Reiki, nervous system support, or professional training, my intention is the same:
To help you feel more regulated, more connected to yourself, and better able to live your life.
Holistic Care Durham is a calm, supportive space both in person and online where real healing and real learning can happen.
