Intuitive, tarot-led creativity, brand & soul guidance
The path is not always clear. Sometimes the signs, the messages, the nudges seem to vanish. Life becomes greyish.
But colour can come back. The way back doesn’t have to be a slog. It can be poetic, artistic, soft, silly, tingly, fun, charged, mystical and bubbling with goosebumps. That is the way of tarot.
What is needed is space. Silence. Attention. With this, everything is available to you.
If you are feeling stuck, confused, inadequate, lost or hungry for new inspiration, I invite you to join me in co-creating a space where you can hear, see and feel what is trying to be communicated to you.
Time and again, tarot amazes me with how it flings opens doors, bringing insights, calm and clarity. Tarot invites us to live fully again and create what is asking to come through us.

Psychic Retrieval (remote reading)
You may be experiencing repeated negative patterns or behaviour, but find it hard to shift them. For issues that sit deep in the subconscious I offer a psychic retrieval reading. Combining my energetic and psychic healing training, I can access information that can help you identify the root cause and gain new clarity on the situation.
We’ll devote 90 minute to travelling together as a group, using the cards as gateways to step into our own wisdom as well as wisdom of the group. Arrive with something specific, or nothing but an open mind, and allow what wants to be seen, heard, felt to emerge.
In this 75 minute session we create a focussed, potent space for the cards to reveal what you need to see, hear & feel. Whether you bring something specific, or nothing except a vague lost feeling, we will start a conversation with the cards to give you the answers you need.

We feel most alive, creative, trusting, inspired when we are connected to something bigger. Whether we all it our inner wisdom, intuition, sub conscious, higher self, god or soul, there are times in life when the connection to it becomes weak.
When life throws challenges at us, the mind tends to take over, and we get lost in confusion, comparison, fear, self-doubt, anxiety, or become lacking in inspiration, deflated, numb.
Tarot is a means of re-establishing this connection. A rich, visual, universal language through which you can communicate with your soul, or sub conscious.
The images, symbols, characters, traits and scenes on the cards become a way to listen, to speak or tell stories. They act as signposts to show what is stuck and why. But they also act as a creative tool, inspiring new ideas and new ways forward.
Whether you believe tarot is magical messenger or functional creative tool, the process can feel profound, fun, inspiring and often downright miraculous. And the end results are the same: more inner knowing, creativity and acceptance of both you and your path.
I never cease to be amazed at the way in which tarot flings open doors in the psyche, illuminates life and offers new ideas and possibilities.
My Approach

My Approach ~
If you’re looking for someone to tell you how your future’s going to play out, there are other people who can help you. But maybe you don’t need that. Knowing what is going to happen might give you a sense of security. But feeling into what is happening right here, right now will bring you agency and real, grounded power.
I am not a fortune teller
This is about you
This is not about me imparting wisdom or giving you answers. My role is to co-create the conditions with you - using space, silence, the body and mind - for wisdom to emerge. I may provide stimulus and provocations, but I encourage you to feel into what is true for you. Take only what is useful. Some things might not make sense at first, or ever. Hold onto everything lightly.
Your safety
Anything you share in our sessions will be held in full confidentiality. I encourage you to (and will prompt you to) check in with your physical, mental and emotional state and to ask to stop or take a break if you feel disregulated. Asking for time out without explanation is always an option.
A note on devotion
Something special happens when we surrender to a place of reverence and devotion. Whatever your belief system, I encourage you to enter our sessions with a spirit of devotion, whether this is to yourself, to the cards, to the divine or simply to the mystery of life. And if devotion feels too much, start with gratitude, or simple acknowledgement.

Shanghai shifted things. By chance I came across the surrealist art movement and learnt about their techniques for accessing the subconscious. So much of it involved relaxation. Meditation. Something that was totally alien to me: not doing. When I applied them to my own creative process, it was like a door swung open. I realised I’d been forcing the ideas out with an iron grip. When actually, all I needed was to relax enough to notice them arising.
Then tarot arrived. I was immediately drawn to it, not as a way to tell the future, but to access the subconscious. It helped me identify and remove blocks and allow ideas to emerge and take shape. What started as a personal hobby quickly became something I shared with others. I have always loved helping people navigate life - from helping friends navigate relationships or as creative director, helping people to identify ideas express them to the world.
It wasn’t until I lived in China that I really realised what intuition was. Up until that point, I had been running on pure brain power, coffee and grind, first to get me through a law degree and then to land me a job as an advertising creative. In this male dominated, Madmen world, ruled by charm and rational thinking. I was selling ideas and going on fancy film shoots. But the price was headaches, hangovers and mysterious digestive issues.
My inner world became intriguing as my outer, leading me to yoga teacher training, energy work and psychic development and finally training as an energy healer. I loved this world but didn’t feel like I could talk about this in the office. Intuition felt like an alien concept. Too ‘woo’ to share with my colleagues. Although in reality the intuitive work was improving my creative process. My ‘woo’ was improving my performance. More and more, I felt called to bring these two worlds together.
