Consultant | Chartered Psychologist | Facilitator & Trainer | Speaker | Anthrozoologist
I work with individuals and teams to develop skills and relationships necessary to meet the human challenges of our rapidly changing world.
My consultancy services are designed using an unusual blend of academic credentials, professional experience and a few creative twists!
Leadership | Individual & Team Effectiveness
I’m a Chartered Research & Teaching Psychologist with the British Psychological Society. My areas of consultancy practice are learning & development, neurodiversity and belonging, personal and relational skills development, and mental health & wellbeing at work. I’ve worked as a senior leader in some of the most complex organisations in the world including BBC, Facebook and TikTok.
In parallel, my academic research focuses on what we can learn from our relationships with our environments, and from other animals, that can help us to create greater wellbeing for us all.
At home I run a private wildlife sanctuary. My work in helping to rehabilitate wild animals has a strong influence on the rest of my work, and life.
I work with people like you to reignite your curiosity for understanding yourself and your relationships, with other people and your environments, so that you are better equipped and empowered to tackle the challenges of being messy humans in a messy world.

Consultancy & Training | Speaking Events
When I was offered the job of Head of Wellbeing at a world-leading organisation, I turned it down. How could I be head of wellbeing in an organisation where I couldn’t be well myself?
Whether you’re neurodivergent or not, being ‘well’ means being in an environment that supports you to be yourself and do the best work of your life.
I help workplaces be better with ‘people like me’, through advisory consultancy and learning programmes for inclusion and belonging.

I specialise in psychological health education, health behaviour change, neurodiversity, resilience, psychological health & safety, and leadership.
My pioneering 4Ps Framework and MaPS whole-organisation training programme for Health, Safety & Wellbeing have gained wide popularity in recent years and are now in use across a number of FTSE100 companies.
I provide bespoke consultancy services, and create and deliver unique and innovative Learning & Development programmes that draw on my research and practice as an applied psychologist working with fellow humans, my experiences as a military officer and corporate leader, and my work as a rehabilitator helping wild animals to recover from physical and psychological trauma and illness.

1-2-1 Mentoring
Are you an independent thinker feeling trapped in employment or maybe in a corporate environment where you are struggling to be ‘you’? Maybe you’re a fabulous, autistic, creative, more comfortable with animals than people? Or a wild woman in midlife wanting to plan your ‘third act?’ I have a small number of slots available for 1-2-1 coaching and mentoring.

Wildlife Rehabilitation & Research
“If our greatest loss with the animals has been to lose touch with the reality of their existence, our second loss has been to banish them from our minds. We assume they have nothing to teach us about the predicaments of our existence.”
John Muir, Mountaineer
I run a private, licensed wildlife sanctuary from my home in Yorkshire, called ‘Nala’s Nook‘. I specialise in the rehabilitation and care of the corvid (crow) family of birds, and grey squirrels. Alongside my passion for working with the animals themselves, I’m continually learning new lessons about myself and my relationships with others through this work. I’m now committed to bringing this learning to a wider audience, and offer workshops on this theme.
I’m also leading a new three year research project funded by the Open University, exploring human-wildlife relationships in a sanctuary context. See my research page for more.
