Breath
Movement
Creativity
Connection
We live in complexity and contradiction from a personal to a global perspective.
Each small action we make as individuals or collectively, goes someway to redressing the balance and bringing about change.
Ren's Story
Short Version
My practice embraces influences across my life, from music to outdoor adventures to writing and of course family and friends.
I enjoyed a 25 year career in the NHS - working in a variety of hospitals across the West Midlands and moving into community services across Warwickshire.
This provides me with great insight and experience regarding the challenges and positives of meaningful living, relationships with others and systems we live, work and connect with.
I've lived the good times and challenging times that come with raising two daughters - both now fully fledged adults, living life well and also carrying the flame into public service and advocating for others. I know the heartaches many of us face through life, alongside the normal and joyful times.
I love being active outdoors, especially in or on the water, in forests and generally wandering. Am curious and adventurous with a small 'a'!
And when I need mental restoration, I'm at my writing desk or listening to something from my vinyl collection.
I have met thousands of people in and through my work - patients, family, friends and colleagues. This has rooted firmly my belief that our relationships with others, as well as our selves, are key to finding contentment, healing and feeling safe.
