The SALT story
SALT was born from a deep longing for connection — to ourselves, to one another, and to the natural world. What began as a space for somatic movement and retreats has evolved into something more intimate and quietly radical: a private therapeutic practice rooted in the belief that healing doesn’t come from fixing or prescribing, but from remembering who we truly are.
The name SALT is a reminder of what’s elemental and essential. Salt heals, preserves and grounds us. It reminds us of the sea, the earth, the body — of nature’s rhythms and our place within them. My work is inspired by this same natural wisdom: that we are cyclical, sensitive, adaptive beings who thrive not in rigid systems, but in spaces where we can be fully ourselves — wild, raw, tender, and whole.
Connection has always been at the heart of what I do. Not just to our thoughts and emotions, but to the deeper self beneath them — the part of us that still knows how to listen to the wind, to be moved by the ocean, to rest in stillness. In this practice, we create space to explore that connection in whatever way it wants to emerge: gently, honestly, and in your own time.
SALT is a non-prescriptive, nature-inspired space. There are no quick fixes here, no templates to follow. Just a warm, grounded invitation to return to yourself — and to let that be enough.
Shaped by the elements
My journey into counselling & therapy began long before formal training — rooted in a lifelong curiosity about people, behaviours, and how we make sense of our inner worlds. I originally studied a BA in Dance and Culture and developed a particular interest in anthropology, where I explored how identity, history, and cultural expression shape who we are. That early academic path planted the seeds of my deep interest in human experience.
Alongside my professional career in events and hospitality, I trained as a yoga practitioner, specialising in yin and restorative practices. During this time I was inspired by the power of connecting with the deeper, often hidden parts of ourselves — our instinctual, emotional, and even wild nature. Emotions don’t just live in the mind; they’re carried in the body, shaped by our histories, and woven into our unconscious. When we begin to explore and integrate these layers, we open the door to deeper self-understanding and healing.
For a couple of years, I ran well-being retreats, which offered powerful spaces for people to reconnect to themselves through the outdoors, movement, and mindfulness. But I began to notice that something was missing — a space to truly speak, to express what was happening internally, and to be heard. That absence stayed with me, and eventually became a driving force in my decision to train as a counsellor and therapist.
I began my foundation certificate in Counselling & Psychotherapy at Regent’s University London and completed my Diploma in Counselling & Therapy and clinical placements with Cornwall Counselling Institute - the diploma is awarded by the University of Plymouth. My training is rooted in the person-centred approach. Today, I offer a therapeutic space where you can feel seen, heard, and accepted — just as you are.
One of my greatest sources of healing in life has been immersing myself in nature — walking, breathing, grounding, and reconnecting with something bigger than myself. Nature inspires both my personal path and my work as a therapist. I believe we are not separate from nature — we are nature — and that insight shapes how I see our emotional lives and human experience.
I believe that speaking with someone you trust can transform feelings of shame, loss, and emotional overwhelm into something more spacious, integrated, and healing. Therapy doesn’t promise easy answers, but it can offer something just as powerful: a place to be with what’s true, together.
“If we can share our story with someone who responds with empathy and understanding, shame can't survive.”
