My Experience
I have been in Practice since 1993 and for thirteen years in Cardiff. I obtained a degree from Oxford in Philosophy and Politics and then worked both in the NHS and in the advertising and creative industries. Later, I decided to train as a homeopath after a period of ill health and low spirits led me to consult a homeopath. I found that this restored my health and vitality and so I began to study homeopathy myself, eventually embarking on a four year course.
I enjoy working with people of all ages and often treat whole families. I believe in working alongside conventional health professionals, in the best interests of each patient. I am raising a family and have a particular interest in parenting issues and children’s health. I frequently work with the health and emotional issues of pregnancy and have studied breastfeeding. I work with women to support them as they breastfeed their babies. I believe that homeopathy can play a very helpful role in infant health and this is a rewarding aspect of my work.
I also frequently consult with people about their symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression. Working with people experiencing grief and loss is important in my practice. I am experienced in using counselling techniques where appropriate and motivation and mentoring skills are also used when that will be useful.
Hormonal problems and any allergic and skin conditions are also common issues during my consultations. However, a wide variety of people come to see me with many different health problems. The important thing is that all aspects of a person’s symptoms and personality are taken into account; this is the essence of holistic therapy.
I am a fully insured practitioner, follow a code of ethics and am registered with the Society of Homeopaths (click on the image to visit their site).
Testimonial
We have included some opinions from people who have attended homeopathic consultations. These opinions appear with full consent and approval from the individuals concerned and are not intended to show evidence of clinical effectiveness.
Mrs WM is a lady in her mid nineties.
Her daughter C accompanies her to her homeopathic consultations and has been given her permission to comment in addition. Mrs W was experiencing distressing skin eruptions, alongside other health problems and her quality of life was significantly affected. She commented that the itching was unbearable. Mrs W lives alone, with the support of her family.
She has been taking homeopathic remedies since November 2010. She now reports' feeling brighter' 'with more energy'. Her skin has recovered with no eruption and only some dry patches. Her daughter reports that within weeks of homeopathic treatment there was a vast improvement and also that they have not had to call the doctor out for some months as her mother's health has been stable. This was not the case previously. C feels that more people should have the option of homeopathic treatment. She also comments that people should stick at homeopathic treatment. In her experience, it does work, given time and sometimes it is not the first prescribed remedy that is effective. C feels that it is important to give the homeopath the full information so that they can sort out what is relevant in your particular case.
Mr TM Vale of Glamorgan
Mr TM is a personal trainer in his early thirties with his own business.
He came for treatment for vertigo and anxiety symptoms. He had tried several other treatments including visits to doctors and counselling. He was feeling low and it was affecting his work. A month after his first consultation
He says
"...the anxiety is not there, I think about relaxation and feel that I should just roll with it" "...All I know is I feel great. I just started to feel normal again" Mr TM returns every few months to talk about his health and to repeat his homeopathic remedy if he needs to. His business is booming and he feels well and happy "...I tried different treatments for my vertigo, but homeopathy was the only one that worked for me"
