Tina originally
trained in Business Studies in 1970 at St. Albans College
of Further Education. From
working in other people’s businesses for 8 years,
she went into the entertainment world as a deejay/compere
working all over the UK and in Europe entertaining
between 1,000 and 6,000 people per week. She is
very comfortable running workshops and lecturing.
Her fascination with psychology
began as early as 1970 when she worked as a volunteer
for the Probation Service and then in a Prison running
a weekly discussion group with inmates and then teaching
remedial English 3 nights per week to young offenders. She
has never lost this passion for the workings of the mind.
Wanting to be in a helping
profession and being very practical in nature, Tina started
a driving school aimed at getting women their independence
back after having had their families. This
was a successful business but was abruptly ended following
a serious car crash in 1990.
A TURNING POINT
This event later became
a blessing as it brought Tina to the healing profession.
Tina was faced with a life threatening disease as a result
of the shock trauma from the accident and her own healing
process served to be a great teacher. It was a long road
to recovery, during which time Tina undertook learning
the hands on healing system of energy healing. This
was a long apprenticeship.
MONTY ROBERTS
Simultaneously, she
trained with Monty Roberts at West Oxfordshire College
in Whitney undertaking Monty’s
Preliminary Certificate in Horsemanship and worked with
horses with behavioural and health issues. Meeting
and working with such a wonderful soul as Monty was a huge
privilege and gift never to be forgotten. Tina became known
locally as a horse healer. This aspect of the work
expanded to include cats and dogs and then the owners of
the pets started asking if they too could receive some
of the energy their pets benefited from so much. She
still receives referrals from her local veterinary practice.
From being seriously ill and
virtually bed ridden in 1993, Tina began a slow career
change into the healing profession. She
studied and read for the next 5 years until choosing a
suitable path which she has followed ever since.
REIKI AND
TRAUMA
In 1997 she became a Master
Teacher/Practitioner Reiki. This
led to the exploration of the effects of trauma whether
the trauma is from an emotional, mental or physical source. Tina
became interested in why we become unhappy, why we get
sick and how to change these states of being and enjoy
and choose to love life.
From 2000 until 2002, Tina
worked and trained with Ron Urquhart in Australia in
the EM™ process, Life Counseling, Ki-Energy Healing,
The Way Meditation (Teacher Status) and Water-Linked
EM™.
This proved to be a huge breakthrough
working with clients as it allowed birth and childhood
trauma to be safely expressed cathartically. This
was the start of her interest in trauma and bodywork. Tina
then trained in Regression Therapy with Non-Directive Hypnotherapy,
obtaining a qualification in the Irene Hickman method of
Spirit Release.
PAST LIFE WORK
Wanting to link the
bodywork with past life issues in addition to childhood
traumas she has graduated with Roger Woolger and has a
Diploma in Deep Memory Process. Tina
continues to learn with Dr. Woolger to expand her knowledge.
In-between times she went on
to investigate non-verbal trauma healing with Dr. Sean
O’ Geary (Triune Processing)
to help clients not so suited to working cathartically.
