Summary

I am a dedicated and compassionate individual currently completing the final stages of my BSc in Psychology and Counselling with the Open University. Alongside my studies and periods of employment, I have been raising my three children, in which I have developed transferable skills by balancing multiple responsibilities, problem-solving, and refining time management skills. Now that my children are getting older, I am re-entering the workplace and seeking opportunities where I can continue to develop my experience within the field of care. Having previously worked for Praxis Care, I am familiar with the commitment to providing compassionate, personalised support that promotes independence and wellbeing. I am passionate about delivering person-centred care that respects each individual's dignity, supports their choices, and promotes their wellbeing and quality of life. I aspire to continue developing my skills while finishing my degree and pursuing further training in Art Therapy.
