About me

I knew, from an early age, my mind worked differently from other people's. (I had this in my bio before I discovered I'm neurodivergent!) I also realised my brain and my differences could either work for me or against me. I've struggled with mental ill health and recovery has been incredibly hard. As we walk through life, all sorts of things happen to us; some are within our control, others are not. The only thing that really matters is how we think about what happens and how we respond—ultimately, these are the only things we can control. I qualified as a doctor 17 years ago and I'm now working in a counselling agency. Having worked in mental health for over 10 years I've gathered numerous insights into the workings of the mind. So my writing combines my neurodivergence, my personal and professional experiences. To unwind I enjoy being creative so I'd love it if you checked out my jewellery shop too!
