Earth is my altar.
When I was about 5, I was shown a map of the world in a classroom. I picked it up, turned it over and asked my very puzzled teacher, ‘yes, but where’s the otherside?’.
This moment sticks out in my mind as the catalyst for an inner knowing I had, that couldn’t be explained to me by anyone. For many years I experienced what I thought were completely normal situations. Seeing spirits daily, sensing people’s energies, flying out of my body most nights when dreaming, and talking to the fairies and gnomes in my garden were a daily occurrence.
I lived through the brilliant 90’s witch-core vibes of Sabrina, The Craft, and Practical Magic. I became obsessed with a local spiritual shop that sold spell books amongst other things and practiced spells daily. I was and still am, a keen astrological nerd. (Tell me your big 3!).
As time passed, I began to forget the magic, as a lot of us do. The tumultuous teenage years and early twenties were difficult for me but in my mid-twenties I ‘awoke’ after meeting my now wife, Tracey.
We explored our connection together and went to spiritualist churches, psychic demonstrations and mediumship circle training. Later I studied shamanism and recently, I’ve been alchemising my learnings into something more native to the UK, more Celtic.
I welcome all, I do not judge and I provide a safe, calming space for those with sensitive nervous systems. I was late diagnosed with Autism in my mid-thirties, so I understand the pressures of a sensitive nervous system especially in spiritual settings.
I have a two year old son, and have developed an understanding of how matrescence can change our spiritual foundations too. This is an ongoing learning for me as he grows.
I love to teach, to help, and to be of service.
If you’d like to reach out, I’d be happy to hear from you.

My core values
Equality
Being autistic comes with some great perks, such as seeing every person as a complete equal. It wasn’t so good when I worked in corporate settings and didn’t see heirarchies or politics!
It does mean that I am very open, honest and don’t judge others. If you come to see me, you come as you are and as my equal.
Dark and light
I don’t believe in forced happiness within spiritual settings or needing to constantly be in a state of ‘love and light’.
You can’t have light without the darkness, which means that facing our shadows, expressing anger, and just wanting to scream or cry can be part of the process too. I find the real grit and authenticity comes from being allowed the space to feel all these things.
Personal evolution
Your spiritual journey is entirely your own and unique. That’s what makes my role so special and exciting. To be in sacred witness to your growth and to help guide as necessary, is a huge honour.
