Qualifying as a Mental Health Nurse in 2014 and working in a variety of settings with a wide range of mental health concerns, I quickly recognised that scripted care does not meet the expansive and diverse needs of the individual. 

Re-training as a Pluralistic Practitioner has helped me to understand that we are rarely able to meet a persons individual needs by telling them what they should or shouldn't do. It is my belief that we can meet a persons needs by asking the question What do you need? and enhancing the journey to identifying not only the need, but also the solution. Whether that is change, acceptance, both or neither. 

In my personal life I have had to overcome many challenges of my own and understand how hard it can be, it is only with help and support that I have learnt to grow and build resilience. 

My qualifications were obtained at the University of South Wales.

I'm a Registered Member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and NMC (Nursing and Midwifery Council) and adhere to their code of ethics.
