About Joanna

I first discovered homeopathy at a time when insomnia and anxiety had taken over my life. I had been prescribed medication for sleep but I knew there had to be a gentler and more effective way forward. Working with a homeopath changed everything. I began sleeping through the night without medication, my panic attacks eased, and I began feeling like myself again. That experience gave me the confidence to train as a homeopath so I could support others facing similar struggles.

I am particularly drawn to working with people experiencing sleep difficulties and mental health challenges, though homeopathy often brings much wider change. Clients frequently tell me they notice improvements not only in sleep and mood, but also in their relationships, work, and overall well being. Many say they feel deeply listened to and are surprised by how supportive and far-reaching homeopathic care can be.

My approach is gentle, practical, and individualised. I take time to understand each person as a whole, rather than focusing on symptoms alone, and work carefully to find remedies that truly resonate with their experience.

My background includes a degree in Sociology, a teaching qualification, and training in Art Psychotherapy at Roehampton University. I trained in homeopathy at the Centre for Homeopathic Education in London and am a registered member of the Society of Homeopaths. My work is influenced by Hahnemann as well as contemporary homeopaths including Declan Hammond, Maggie Dixon (my supervisor), and Ian Watson. One book I return to often is Homeopathy: The Tao of Homeopathy.

I practise from my home in Kingston upon Thames, offering face-to-face consultations as well as online sessions for clients worldwide. I also volunteer at the Riojen Homeopathic Clinic in The Gambia, an experience I find deeply meaningful and humbling.

Outside the clinic, I am a mum to three children. I enjoy long walks in Richmond Park, playing piano and singing, spending time with my children, and cooking a roast dinner on a Sunday. I value reflection and inner guidance, and this quietly informs how I listen, support, and work with people in practice.
