My Services

---

I offer Buddhist Chaplaincy to anyone in need of spiritual care—regardless of background, belief system, or life situation. Whether you're navigating change, grief, illness, or simply seeking stillness and support, my role is to walk beside you with compassion and presence.

This support includes

• Gentle care through life’s everyday challenges
• Holding space during times of transition or crisis
• Spiritual support through birth, illness, loss, or rites of passage
• 
  

Buddhism is a non-proselytising tradition. It does not seek to convert—it simply offers a path of reflection, awareness, and compassion. You do not need to be a Buddhist, or hold any spiritual belief, to receive care.

As a Lay Ordained Buddhist practitioner and teacher, I offer chaplaincy as an expression of my practice and way of being, not as a business. I am an independent, unaffiliated chaplain—not tied to any person, organisation or group. I work solo, with integrity and respect for the uniqueness of each individual I support. I have advanced DBS 2021 and am a member of the association for spiritual integrity

My role is simple yet profound:

To be present. To listen.
To offer spiritual care that honours your values, your beliefs, and your journey.

I may ask for small market-rate contributions for certain services, depending on the nature of the support offered.

If you feel drawn to this support, it would be my honour to walk alongside you — with kindness, presence, and respect for all that you are.

Meditation is a powerful complementary healing tool, helping to ease emotional struggles and support a more balanced, resilient life.
In my private one-to-one sessions, I guide you through Tantric meditation, using breathwork, focused concentration, and the visualisation of energy and colour. Together, we work with the heart centre to transform emotional tension into clarity, strength, and deeper wellbeing.

Spiritual mentoring is a one-to-one journey that begins with the mind and soul. It embraces life’s mystery, respecting your beliefs, your energy, your subconscious wisdom, your presence, and your deeper connection to your higher self.

I see life as a deeply personal experience. In our work together, I support you in building a relationship with yourself and others that flows naturally — without pressure, without force. Compassion, understanding, and a shared commitment to growth guide every session.

The aim is for you to live and express your life with clear wisdom, spiritual depth, and authentic integrity — using your unique gifts, skills, and experiences with purpose and power.

Each session is centred around you. There are no rigid methods — only a deep trust in your process, and a commitment to support whatever needs attention, in whatever way you need it most.
