Workshops, Speaking & Training
Creating Meaningful Conversations That Inspire Growth, Awareness & Change
I work with organisations, schools, charities, community groups and professional teams to deliver engaging workshops, training sessions, keynote talks and facilitated discussions focused on mental health, wellbeing, relationships, safeguarding, resilience and personal growth.
Drawing on my experience as a Counsellor, Relationship Therapist and Social Worker, I create spaces that encourage reflection, meaningful conversation and practical learning.
Whether you are looking for a keynote speaker, wellbeing workshop, safeguarding session or bespoke training programme, I can tailor content to meet the needs of your audience.
Available in Birmingham, London, across the UK and internationally.
The SELAH™ Framework
Stories That Elevate Love, Awareness and Healing
At the heart of my work is the SELAH™ Framework, a model I developed that forms the foundation of many of my workshops, speaking engagements and community events.
The SELAH™ Framework is built on the belief that people make sense of themselves and the world through the stories they carry. By creating opportunities to pause, reflect and engage with those stories, new insight, understanding and growth become possible.
Drawing on therapeutic practice, storytelling, creativity, reflection and facilitated conversation, the SELAH™ Framework helps people explore the patterns, beliefs and experiences that shape their lives, relationships and wellbeing.

- Reflection
- Facilitated Conversation
Workshops may include:
- Storytelling and narrative exploration

Why My Workshops Are Different
Many workshops provide information. My aim is to create experiences that inspire reflection, connection and meaningful change.
At the heart of my work is the SELAH™ Framework, a model I developed that stands for Stories That Elevate Love, Awareness and Healing.
Drawing on my experience as a Therapist, Relationship Practitioner and Social Worker, the framework combines therapeutic principles, storytelling, creativity, reflection and facilitated conversation to help people explore the patterns, beliefs and experiences that shape their lives.
The SELAH™ Framework is built on the belief that people make sense of themselves and the world through the stories they carry. By creating opportunities to pause, reflect and engage with those stories, new insight and understanding become possible.
The goal is not simply to share information, but to create spaces where people feel seen, heard and empowered to think differently about themselves, their relationships and their future.
Every workshop is designed to leave participants with greater awareness, deeper connection and practical insight they can carry forward into everyday life.
