Life has a way of inviting evolution. We are offered choices to grow. For over 25 years I worked as a registered counsellor and psychotherapist, drawing on non-verbal communication, unconscious processing and language-pattern skills to help people make sense of what’s going on beneath the surface. Alongside this, I trained in Spiritual Accompaniment and began Lay Ministry training, while also teaching myself the craft of reflective writing, mainstream publishing and sales promotion of my products. Over time I found myself not only writing and publishing my own work and magazine articles—but also guiding friends and colleagues to bring their works to life. That blend of listening, reflection, shaping, and helping people find their true voice is still at the heart of what I do—only now it’s grown deeper, clearer, and more purposeful.
What's The Story?

Busy Corner Books grew from a quiet corner of my own life — a place where words mattered, where listening mattered, and where people deserved to be met with dignity, at whatever stage on their journey.
For over twenty-five years I have worked alongside individuals navigating transition, change, leadership, faith, identity and complex life issues. My background in counselling, psychotherapy and communication has shaped the way I listen. Writing, for me, has never been about performance. It has been about process through internal honesty and authenticity. About safety, and helping someone find language for what they already carry.
Alongside this lived-in and professional experience, I hold a Master's degree in Creative Writing and am currently undertaking a Doctorate in Ministry, focusing on spiritual formation, ethics and reflective practice. My work sits at the crossroads of creativity, careful thought, and compassionate presence.
Busy Corner Books and Writing Well are not therapy services. However, they are ethically grounded in trauma-aware, neurodiversity-informed and accountable reflective practice. All my work is supported by professional external supervision. I hold appropriate insurance and operate within a clear safeguarding and ethical framework.
This is not a space of ego or urgency. It is a space for attention, and your professional—personal evolution.
Whether you arrive as a writer seeking clarity, a professional supporting others, or someone simply longing to make sense of your story, you will be met with care, compassion, integrity and patience. I can walk alongside you.
At its heart, Busy Corner Books is about honouring the person in front of me—and the quiet courage it takes to put words on a page.
Held by God, Serving Others
In 2023, an accident changed my body, my pace, my life; close people were removed from my life—but it deepened the calling.
Now I study ministry, write courses and books, and walk alongside others, because I know how it feels to start again from nothing. Feeling totally internally humiliated at change, and climbing slowly from a pit I did not dig.
But,
to be gently rebuilt.
to find God in the quietest,
most painful places.
to learn from pain.
and evolve 🌱
I don't lead from a platform — I facilitate through a deep relationship with Father God; sharing faith, compassion and light. Delivery of ministry is so much more than from a pulpit.

Busy Corner Books builds from these foundations
Here, writing is not just a craft — it is a place of healing and discernment
A place where, given the right sensitive facilitation, faith and creativity meet. Your beliefs about faith are always honoured. So long as they do not cause harm to another.
A place where you 'come as you are' to explore your stories, understand your pain or discomfort, and discover your own courage - feeling held and empowered in confidence.
Whether through Writing Well Courses, the Arclight™ spiritual formation journey, or CPD/PD (Continuing Professional Development and Personal Development) training — the heart remains the same:
bringing people together, helping shine light into hidden places, teaching you how to keep your lamp topped up with oil, and using writing and individual reflective process towards a form of gentle transformation.
