Story of Flux-Therapy
History
In 1998 I began working with vulnerable adults across various criminal justice settings (probation, prison and resettlement teams). I spent a number of years employed in the charitable and community sectors with teenagers and adults experiencing addictions, grief, anxiety, depression and homelessness.
I have a specialist research interest and personal lived experience with chronic pain. This passion is explored through the lens of sports participation/exclusion.
