I am a practicing chartered Psychologist, having completed a BSc, MSc, and Doctorate in Psychology.

 

I have long held a love for fashion, coming from a family of avid sewers; creating outfits for my dolls and religiously tuning into The Clothes Show with my mother every Sunday evening as a child.

​

I have always been the person my male and female friends turn to when wanting to find that special outfit or try something new, and so I decided to complete a Diploma in Personal Styling with The London College of Style. There, I honed my skills in male and female body shape, colour, brand awareness and style personality
 

I noted people often turned to dress and appearance during periods of change and as a means of expression e.g, at the beginning or end of a relationship, a change of career, or when in a place of self-re-evaluation. For me, this highlighted the intersectionality between Psychology and dress, and the power of "the feel good factor", known as hedonic wellbeing. As a Psychologist, I focus on the inside, and as a stylist, on the outside. But people are wholes, not parts, so why not attend to both?

 

I love to shop for others, support motivation, and promote self-esteem and confidence, and believe fashion should not be a daunting, stigmatising or an exclusionary affair.

 

Fashion is for everyone, and expression is human.This is why I created The Style and Wellbeing Consultancy. Welcome to a true retail therapy experience!
