A little more about me…


I worked as a GP in the NHS for years, but always felt like there was something missing in my life. I had become disillusioned over the years as a doctor, often feeling like I was at best offering sticking plasters on my patient's symptoms rather than getting to any root causes of their chronic illness. More importantly, I felt there was something missing for me. The pandemic caused many to reflect on their life and this was definitely the case for me.

 

For the first time, I asked myself what I truly wanted in this life. I reconnected with my own spirit. I rediscovered a joy through painting - something that had been missing for many years. I eventually transitioned from medicine and followed my heart to become an abstract painter.

 

Through this journey I learnt so much about how powerful our subconscious mind and belief structures are. I discovered the real physical effects our thoughts can have on our body. The more I learnt, the more I felt like I had stumbled across the missing piece - the mind-body connection. I learned how chronic stress affects our body. Stress which is often triggered by subconscious thoughts and beliefs. Especially when we live out of alignment with our spirit - who we really are deep down. This stress leads to unease and eventually shows up as  dis-ease in our body.

 

Your body has an innate ability for restoring wellness.  It has an amazing ability to keep in harmony and balance - however those systems are dialled down in chronic stress. As a doctor I gave you medication to help you from the 'outside'. Now I work in a completely non medical way to help you create the 'inner' conditions for your healing to take place. 

 

A bit more about my art:

I create abstract paintings which are intuitive and act as a meditative space allowing for pause and refection for myself and hopefully for the viewer too. I use vibrant colours and texture to convey the depths of my inner landscape on canvas. All the paintings you can see on this website are my own!

I started painting again because I felt called to reconnect with Art. I’ve been lucky enough to win a few awards along the way. I work from a studio in Sheffield and have participated in many group exhibitions.
