London / Essex

Summary

I am transitioning from a successful career in sales, choosing to step away from a life of financial comfort in order to pursue my long-standing calling to support others in improving their mental wellbeing. I hold a strong belief that our perception of reality is shaped by the mind, and that through reflection, support, and structured guidance, individuals can reorganise their thinking and meaningfully improve their quality of life. This conviction is rooted in lived experience, having provided emotional and practical support to my mother growing up, and continuing to help friends, family, and others navigate challenges.

I feel most authentic and fulfilled when serving others in this capacity, and I am now seeking a psychology-based role to develop hands-on experience alongside my studies, with the goal of progressing to an Assistant Psychologist position and contributing to meaningful, evidence-based support for those in need. I am able to commit to 30-40 hours per week on a flexible basis.
