I ran a training clinic for herbal students at Highgate Natural Health Centre 1980-2. I was a tutor at the School of Herbal Medicine Tunbridge Wells 1979-84 in Clinical Skills, Pathology and Pharmacology. I had a private herbal practice in London 1979-1989. I taught the first Adult Education evening class in Herbal Medicine in London in 1981 at the Chequer Centre Islington and devised and taught adult ed. at the City Lit, WEA and ILEA until 1989. In 1989 I worked with CIIR first in Nicaragua and then in The Dominican Republic. I remained in the DR until 1999 working with Traditional Medicine in Villa Mella and La Romana. I have taught workshops all over the world. Recently I have given workshops in Magical Herbalism and Astrology and Herbalism at the Radical Herb Gatherings 2015/16.
I trained as a Psychosynthesis counsellor with Diana Whitmore and Pierro Ferucci, graduating in 1989. I have a private practice in counselling in London, specialising in working with creative professionals, including students from RADA.
